Just keep hitting the issue and the democrats over and over as you continue to build as much as you can with whatever funding you need. And yes, the non-stop invasion of illegals will not stop until... an enforcement. And more agents. But I like the idea of pressing for more funding before they even think about ending the first few rounds. :)

I think like another 700+ were caught sneaking in yesterday?

Trump to Seek Another $8.6 billion for Border Wall

Washington (AFP) – US President Donald Trump will seek $8.6 billion in fresh funding for a wall on the US-Mexico border in the 2020 budget request, likely triggering another fight with Congress, White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow said Sunday.

The request, which is to be unveiled Monday, would far exceed the $5.7 billion Trump demanded last year, which led to an impasse that resulted in a 35-day partial shutdown of the US government, the longest ever.

Democratic congressional leaders Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer decried the move, warning Trump that another legislative defeat would await him.

Trump to seek $8.6 billion to finish border wall before 2020 election

President Donald Trump will ask Congress for another $8.6 billion to complete a 722-mile wall along the U.S.-Mexico border, a senior administration official told POLITICO on Sunday, part of a cost-cutting opening budget offer that will dismiss hopes for a grand budget deal and likely stoke fresh fears of another government shutdown.

The president will make the request on Monday in his broader proposal for the upcoming fiscal year, which ends just one month before the 2020 presidential election. The sum — billions of dollars higher than the $5.7 billion border-security demand that sparked the 35-day government shutdown — will surely divide spending negotiators again this year, likely resulting in static funding levels for much of the rest of the government or another lapse.

The administration already plans to use $8.1 billion in the current fiscal year to finish more than half of the wall by dipping into other funding sources, including through Trump’s controversial emergency order that Congress is moving toward rebuking. The $8.6 billion request for fiscal 2020 would allow the administration to complete all 722 miles, according to the administration official, who spoke on background.

Reuters first reported the $8.6 billion request.

Pres. Trump: The Wall Is Being Built And Will Greatly Help Us In The Future, And Now

In a tweet Saturday, the president said Border Patrol, and law enforcement officials have apprehended large numbers of illegal immigrants at the border. He applauded their efforts saying “they won’t be coming into the U.S.”

The president went on to say “the wall is being built and will greatly help us in the future and now.”

This as Democrats in the Senate attempt to drum up support to block the president’s national emergency declaration.

President Trump has said he will veto any legislative attempt to block his declaration.
