Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump boldly declared last summer that he would “build a great wall” along the border between the U.S. and Mexico, and that “nobody builds walls better than [him].” Months later, Trump continues to stand by these claims and insists that Mexico will pay for the wall’s construction.
Republican lawmakers pass an immigration package that would restart stalled construction of Donald Trump's southern border wall as the United States braces for a sudden increase in migrant crossings from Mexico. The Secure the Border Act of 2023, which advanced from the Republican-led House of Representatives on a roughly party-line 219-213 vote, would reintroduce several signature Trump-era measures, from completing the wall to bolstering asylum restrictions.
