Trump’s Border Wall Brief & Congress’ Funding Plan | Afternoon Update | 12.20.24

President-elect Donald Trump is taking legal action against the Biden administration's plan to auction off border wall materials, arguing that it undermines his border security initiatives and may violate federal law. His amicus brief aims to prevent these sales, citing potential hindrance to future efforts. Concurrently, House GOP leaders are formulating a new spending plan as concerns of a government shutdown grow, focusing on immediate needs like disaster relief while excluding debt ceiling negotiations.

Trump's legal actions reflect his ongoing commitment to border security and a belief that the Biden administration's policies obstruct his objectives. Concurrently, Congress is grappling with budget proposals to avert a government shutdown while addressing urgent funding needs.
