The new turncoat spending bill will put the constructing of the border wall at 22 years.
In the final wall compromise, $1.6 billion will be available for physical barriers along the Mexican border, but strings are attached. Most of the funding, officials said, can be used only for repairs or for “secondary†barriers along border stretches where there is already a wall. The rest can be used for 33 miles of new barriers, but there are restrictions on the type: Only levees or existing “bollard†fencing can be built, rather than the concrete prototypes Trump appears to favor.
