Exacting on what page does the bill say that?

Good question. It's in the PDF document I posted, according to several news sources - some of which I posted. Congressmen are on TV shows saying that wall construction is prohibited by law in the bill. If it isn't in there, then someone is lying. I have not read the entire 2300 page bill.

Congressmen said a lot about Obamacare and it wasn’t true. They didn’t read the bill then either. They are only Shrills.

Just caught a fellow freeper stretching the truth on state thread. Promoting his candidate and lying about the vote of the opponent. I had not made up my mind until I saw that and posted the actual votes of state representative.

Not all that comes out of mouths is what is! Many have good intentions but what was once the truth has been subject to Obamas change That why DJT is using MAGA. We may not know how near the edge we are until we look back
