  • Texas Republican officials say they want to try and purchase and store border wall materials that are no longer being used by the Biden administration and are being auctioned.

The state of Texas, under Governor Greg Abbott, has devised a plan to purchase border wall materials that were auctioned off by the federal government. These materials, originally intended for the construction of a border wall under former President Donald Trump's administration, were left unused and subsequently auctioned. Texas aims to buy these materials at a reduced cost, store them, and potentially use them to continue building the border wall should Trump return to office. This initiative reflects Texas's ongoing commitment to border security, aligning with Trump's previous policies. The state has already invested significantly in border security, spending over $10 billion, and sees this as an opportunity to further secure the border with existing resources.
