If the last six months have proved anything, it’s that we need to finish the southern border wall.
This is the message a group of House Republicans is bringing to Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
This shouldn’t even be a debate. Nearly half a million people have illegally crossed our border since January.

House Republicans tee up border wall funding fight with Pelosi, calling it their ‘hill to die on’
House conservatives are gearing up for a showdown on border security funding with Democrats, saying appropriations for border wall construction is their “hill to die on.”
The House Republican Study Committee (RSC) unveiled their strategy to Fox News to call out Democrats for blocking any border wall construction or money for additional border agents in their homeland security funding plan. Meanwhile, the largest House conservative caucus Wednesday will offer an alternative bill to buck the Biden adminstration and give money directly to states that want to continue former President Donald Trump’s fight to build the wall with Mexico.
“I believe that protecting our border security through the appropriations process is a Hill to Die On, and I will act accordingly when it comes time to fund our government,” Rep. Jim Banks, R-Ind., the chairman of the RSC, said in a memo to colleagues this week obtained by Fox News.
“Steel, paid for by taxpayers, is sitting rusting on the ground,” Banks wrote of the border wall situation. “Federal contractors have already received taxpayer dollars and are literally being paid by the Biden administration not to build the wall.”
The Biden administration has actually been paying money to not build the wall.

If they won’t build the wall, the only conclusion one could reach is that they want millions of people to flood over the border.
