These 6-7 miles are just one of the contracts that the Supreme Court had to bust loose from a lower court injunction last month. That also freed up other contracts that are starting work now on Arizona Federal Lands (63 miles) and in Yuma (7 miles, where separate contracts are putting in about 20 more miles - 10 already done. 46 more miles in New Mexico, extending the last 20 mile segment from El Paso further to the West (past the Columbus Port of Entry).

A second run of 30 foot bollards is half done in San Diego, and construction is ongoing in Tecate and Calexico in California (soon to start in Andrade).

Damn near the whole Rio Grande Valley is going to be on contract soon (95 miles). Five contracts have already been awarded down there. A month (or more likely two) after the public comment period closes next Monday (26 Aug), the rest of those contracts should drop like rain, with construction commencing about three months later.

There are billions more (about 4) in this year’s funding which has been identified (with the emergency declaration), but not yet committed, plus whatever comes next year.

The drought on wall building is over. Next year, the deluge.

Don't forget our patriots at "We build the Wall". They have already put up a large segment of A+ wall. Cameras, road over rough terrain that the RINOs said didn't need wall and was too difficult.
We Build the Wall
