The US Senate has approved a budget resolution that allocates $175 billion for border security measures, including funding for Trump's border wall, along with an additional $150 billion increase for the Pentagon's budget. This move comes after Trump's administration indicated a lack of funds for deportation efforts. The session concluded with a nearly party-line 52-48 vote. Lindsey Graham emphasized the resolution's pivotal role in fulfilling Trump's border security promises, despite upcoming legislative challenges in the House where Republicans hold a slim majority and face internal divisions.
This budget resolution is a complete gamechanger when it comes to securing our border and making our military more lethal.
The spending structure would see $175bn reserved for border security, including Trump's prized border wall with Mexico, and a $150bn boost to the Pentagon budget.
