The Trump Administration will put a few military projects on pause or even cancel them to use $3.6 billion to build the border wall between the US and Mexico. About 127 military projects will be halted to build a 175 mile wall.

Democrats of course, are not here for the plan. 

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schemer said,

“This decision will harm already planned, important projects intended to support our service members at military installations in New York, across the United States, and around the world. It is a slap in the face to the members of the Armed Forces who serve our country that President Trump is willing to cannibalize already allocated military funding to boost his own ego and for a wall he promised Mexico would pay to build.”
