Truly shocking that you had a reasonably major populated area like McAllen with no wall until now. It’s one thing if it was wide open desert or unpassable terrain, but an area with a major Mexican highway not too far? Wow.
From what I could tell from looking
a satellite maps, the existing levies
are earthen. It would make sense to
replace them with concrete. To prevent
erosion and tunneling.
Monarch butterflies migrate from central
Mexico to southern Canada. A 30’ wall
isn’t going to stop them.
SAVE THE BUTTERFLIES!
Sez you! They’ll strain their little wings trying to fly over that wall, only to be squished by evil ICE agents.
Ha! They’ll be like bugs on a windshield,
smashing into those steel slats...
You fiend!
All it would take, really, is for the Governor of Texas to declare a State Emergency and ask for emergency funds and support from the Federal government.Yes, but what branch? If Congress, you run into same problem. If from some fund already approved for state emergencies that say, the President could approve then you'd have something.
