Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is moving ahead with construction projects along the U.S. Mexico border — doling out contracts and allowing companies to put up fencing — despite growing calls among Democrats to halt work while the United States deals with the spread of COVID-19.
Border Patrol chief Rodney Scott on Monday announced that 151 miles of border wall have been completed since the dawn of the Trump administration, along with nearly 200 miles under construction, and 400 miles in the “pre-construction” phase. The update revealed that construction is taking place at a rather rapid pace.
