The Biden administration plans to return to the Pentagon roughly $2 billion in unspent military construction funds seized by the Trump administration for a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border.
The money will be used on 66 delayed projects on installations in 11 states and 16 countries, including schools for military families, hangars, housing and training facilities, according to the administration.
And while Biden pledged as a candidate to build"not another foot" of wall on the border, the administration said Friday that funds approved by Congress for"border barrier projects" this year will be spent by the administration until lawmakers cancel or reroute the spending.
