Biden administration spends millions per day to halt border wall construction

Taxpayers are coughing up about $6 million per day for the construction of the southern border wall to sit idle.

President Biden’s 60-day pause on border construction contracts didn’t stop federal money from flowing to the border wall, a senior Department of Homeland Security official told Breitbart. Contractors are instead paid for rental expenses or cost of ownership while their equipment sits idle, costing the government $6 million per day as a deadline looms for the Biden administration to decide which projects will continue.
