President Trump’s staff is preparing an executive order-like mandate that would declare a national emergency at the southern border and make available $7 billion of federal money to enhance security at the U.S.-Mexico border, according to a report published Thursday evening.

Internal documents indicate the White House is working on a proclamation that would give Trump the money to move on his border wall after a monthlong standoff with Congress failed to give him the $5.7 billion he initially requested for the project, according to CNN.
