SB 119-28: Build The Wall Act--Withdrawn

[Pyro]

Aye

[Pyro]

Is anyone gonna ask why we need a border wall in the first place? No?

There wasn't much debate time before this amendment vote. But, to answer your question, yes I have numerous issues with this proposal which I plan to bring up at the conclusion of this vote.

[Pyro]

Now that the amendment vote has ended, putting aside the total absurdity of Sections 2 and 3 of this bill, I'd be very interested in hearing from the sponsor on the supposed urgency of a $20 billion land acquisition project for a border wall with Mexico. I hope that the answer will speak to why the sponsor neglected to consult with, or even ask for an update from, the GM Team on the matter of border crossings.

[Pyro]

Seeing as we have not yet received a response from the sponsor, and we have confirmation from Cao that the last update regarding immigration levels was five years ago, I believe there is no reason to continue debate on this legislation.

Motion to table.

[Pyro]

Aye
