There is a growing mob of migrants approaching our southern border right now. Thankfully, President Trump has ordered for 5,000 troops to secure our border and defend our nation’s sovereignty at all costs. But this is not a long term solution, we cannot reasonably expect our military to divert resources to the US-Mexican border for an extended period of time.
We need a lasting and permanent fix to our border crisis. We need a wall on the US-Mexico border, and we need it now. Caravans and migrants aren’t going to stop attempting to cross the border until we secure it once and for all.
To give you an idea of just how bad it is: over 400,000 illegal migrants have crossed the US-Mexico Border into the US this year alone!
Congress’s continued inability to secure our borders has encouraged millions to enter our country in violation of our laws and endangered our great nation’s future. It’s time for Congress to get to work and fulfill the promise of President Trump’s Border Wall.
Almost two years into Donald Trump's Presidency and finally a bill that does exactly that has been introduced into the House of Representatives: H.R. 7073, the "50 Votes for the Wall ACT," introduced by Representative Bradley Byrne (R-AL). This important bill would introduce a measure to use the budget reconciliation process to give the President as much as$25 billion to build the much needed border wall.
If it meets the upper chamber's reconciliation rules, the bill would allow Senate Republicans to pass wall funding with just 50 votes instead of the normal 60 required votes - hence the name "50 Votes for the Wall Act."
However, this bill will never make it without we the peoplemaking our voices heard in support of this crucial piece of legislation.
So please let your U.S. Representative know that you believe maintaining strong borders is one of the basic responsibilities of any nation. Click the button below to send an email to your elected official in support of H.R. 7073. Taking action will take you less than 2 minutes!
Thank you in advance for taking action in support of our nation's national security.
For Freedom,
ACT for America
