Donations to fund a border wall being built by the state of Texas have already surpassed $54 million, according to the Texas Governor’s office. In August, the state legislature passed a $1.8 billion bill for efforts to fight illegal immigration, with almost half that amount going toward wall construction, the Examiner reported.
According to an Examiner analysis, there is a “substantive barrier” present on only 150 miles of the 1,250-mile border Texas shares with Mexico.
