Build the Wall Now Act

Build the Wall Now Act

This bill addresses issues related to the construction of a barrier along the U.S.-Mexico border, such as (1) requiring the Department of Homeland Security to resume any project related to the construction of such a barrier (and any related infrastructure); and (2) exempting such construction projects from various legal requirements, including requirements stemming from the Administrative Procedure Act, the Clean Air Act, and the Clean Water Act.

Bill 117 HR 7450, also known as the Build the Wall Now Act, is a piece of legislation introduced in the US Congress. The main purpose of this bill is to provide funding for the construction of a wall along the US-Mexico border. The bill calls for the allocation of $25 billion for the construction of the wall, as well as additional funding for technology and personnel to enhance border security.

Supporters of the bill argue that a physical barrier along the border is necessary to prevent illegal immigration, drug trafficking, and other criminal activities. They believe that the wall will help secure the border and protect American citizens.

Opponents of the bill, on the other hand, argue that a border wall is unnecessary and ineffective. They believe that the money allocated for the wall could be better spent on other border security measures, such as increased surveillance and technology. The Build the Wall Now Act has sparked heated debate in Congress, with lawmakers from both parties expressing strong opinions on the issue. As of now, the bill is still in the early stages of the legislative process, and it remains to be seen whether it will ultimately be passed into law.
