House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) introduced a bill on Friday to fully fund President Trump's proposed border wall, a chief campaign promise that Congress has struggled to deliver.
The measure, dubbed the "Build the Wall, Enforce the Law Act," provides $23.4 billion to construct a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border, with $5.5 billion in funding available immediately.
Around $16.6 billion would be dedicated to physical barriers, while the rest would cover technology, operations and other infrastructure costs associated with border security.
The measure does not indicate where in the budget the money would come from. As an advance appropriation, it would be up to appropriators to decide where future cuts will need to come from in order to cover the costs of the bill.
"For decades, America's inability to secure our borders and stop illegal immigration has encouraged millions to undertake a dangerous journey to come here in violation of our laws and created huge loopholes in the legal channels we use to welcome immigrants to our country," McCarthy, a top Trump ally who seeks to replace retiring Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) next year, said in a statement.
