Move likely to begin another fierce battle over border security funding
President Donald Trump will ask Congress for an additional $8.6 billion for wall construction on the U. S.-Mexico border, a move that will likely set up another fierce battle over border security funding.
The president is expected to roll out his 2020 budget proposal Monday, which will include billions more than his previous demand for wall funding. The budget will request $5 billion for the Department of Homeland Security and another $3.6 billion for the Defense Department’s military construction budget to build more sections of wall along the U. S. southern border, The Washington Post reported.
Announcement of the new budget proposal comes shortly after the federal government ended a historic 35-day partial shutdown over wall funding.
