Federal Judge Blocks Billions In Military Funds For Trump’s Border Wall

"In a blow to the White House, a federal judge issued a pair of rulings late Friday blocking the Trump administration from using billions of dollars in military funds to construct the southern border wall.

The move by Oakland-based Judge Haywood Gilliam Jr. of the Northern District of California halts a total of $2.5 billion in funds and stops construction in sites in New Mexico, California, Arizona and Texas.

The Trump administration planned to break ground on the sites Monday, Bloomberg reported."

Mary Papenfuss reports for The Hill June 29, 2019.
