Trump's new border wall funding request in his budget sets up yet another standoff with Congress over immigration.
Washington just emerged from one ugly government shutdown fight over President Donald Trump's proposed border wall. Another could sit right around the corner.
At the same time, the president declared a national emergency and took other executive actions to secure $8 billion in total barrier funding. The Democratic-held House has voted to block the declaration, and the GOP-controlled Senate is set to do so this week. Trump has promised to veto the congressional resolution.
The wall — a key Trump campaign promise — likely will not disappear as an issue, especially as the president seeks re-election next year. Even after Trump rejects the bill to block the emergency declaration, his administration will have to defend against various lawsuits challenging the flex of executive power.
