Pelosi: Forget the wall, let's fund ports of entry instead

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Thursday refused to budge on President Trump’s demand for a border wall, but she did say she supports more funding for official ports of entry to stop drugs from entering the U.S.

“I’m not for a wall,” Pelosi told reporters who asked her whether she is willing to seek a compromise. She spoke near the end of the fourth week of the partial government shutdown that began after Democrats refused to fund Trump’s border wall, and Trump said he wouldn’t sign any spending bills for the government without wall money.
