The Pentagon on Friday 30 April 2021 said it was canceling the construction of parts of former President Donald Trump’s border wall with Mexico that were being built using military funds, with the unused money being returned to military.
Trump declared a national emergency in 2019 in an effort to redirect funding to build a wall along the U.S. southern border.
President Joe Biden issued a proclamation on Jan. 20, his first day in office, ordering a freeze on border wall projects and directing a review of the legality of its funding and contracting methods.
