Another perspective on the failed referenda

Eliot Engel

Remember President Trump’s border wall? The one that he first said would be paid by Mexico, and that he later asked U.S. taxpayers to fund? Well, it may be one of the first casualties of the new Congress that resulted from the Nov. 6 mid-term elections.

The newly elected Democrat-controlled House most likely will not approve funding for Trump’s border wall, which most experts agree would be a monumental waste of money.

Also, the new House will try to roll back many of Trump’s most Draconian immigration measures and seek to restore foreign aid to Central America and South America, which the administration has been seeking to drastically cut.
