Congressional Border Deal:
$5.3 Billion to Israel, Ukraine, Jordan …But Only $1.37 Billion for Limited
Border Fence, , 2/14/19
Congressional
negotiators announced on Monday night they
have a border wall funding agreement they believe President Trump will sign
into law.
The
agreement was announced
by a group of lawmakers led by Republican Sen. Richard Shelby and Democratic
Rep. Nita Lowey, after a closed-door meeting on Capitol Hill.
On Wednesday FOX News announced
Democrats slipped a
“poison pill” into the deal that will
prevent the 55 miles of wall from being built.
But
the agreement is even worse than what is being reported. The agreement
specifies areas where Trump cannot build any wall.
Funds
can only be used to make steel bollard design… no concrete wall, no prototypes.
Same thing as what Bush and Obama built… just a little bit taller.
$1.375
billion for a border fence…And
$5.3 billion in gift money to Israel, Ukraine, and Jordan.
Once again, the Republican Party
failed to deliver to their voters. This
agreement is a disgrace. The
GOP got rolled.
