The $1 Billion Dollar - 700 Mile fence on the Mexican Border and more
If I digested the news story right, Republicans just passed a bill in one of the houses to authorize the building of a 700 mile fence on the mexican border at the cost of 1 billion dollars.
The law also requires voters to have some form of national ID.
Re the fence: If they say it'll cost a billion, it will cost 2-3x that guaranteed. And I don't really know that a fence will do all that much. This seems like a plan that will look to voters like they're doing something while wasting billions that will not work.
Re the photos- The Democrats oppose this. I'm not sure if I'm misunderstanding what's going on because I don't quite understand what the objection is. Though haven't I already had to show proof of citizenship when I registered to vote? Wazzup here?
