Rep. Ashley Hinson: Democrats Transfer Border Wall Funds to Plants Trampled by Illegal Aliens

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

53% : The budget provision mentions that $100 million previously approved for border wall construction will now be spent on "mitigation activities."
48% : While revoking all funding for border wall construction, the Democrats' Department of Defense budget spends nearly a billion of American taxpayer money on border security for foreign countries such as Jordan, Egypt, Lebanon, Tunisia, and Oman.
47% : "While bill today cuts our funding to CBP by more than $900 million with no new money for border agents, tucked away in Section 211 is a provision that transfers $100 million in funds that were previously enacted for border security," Hinson said:
46% : Hinson, who unseated U.S. Chamber of Commerce-endorsed Democrat Abby Finkenauer last year, said the budget actually siphons $100 million -- previously approved to continue building border wall -- to treat plants that have been trampled on by illegal aliens crossing the U.S.-Mexico border.
45% : Also, the budget rescinds the previously appropriated $2.06 billion for border wall construction and provides no funding for additional U.S. Border Patrol agents.
40% : whose only criminal history is possession of marijuana.
35% : A Democrat-approved spending budget for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) strips previously approved funds for a wall along the United States-Mexico border and transfers the money to be spent on plants that are trampled by illegal aliens, Rep. Ashley Hinson (R-IA) says.
28% : On Tuesday, House Democrats on the House Appropriations Committee approved their DHS spending budget, which, as Breitbart News reported, revokes all funding for a border wall and expands upon President Joe Biden's "sanctuary country" orders by making it increasingly difficult for federal immigration officials to deport illegal aliens.
