Questions have been asked of the Vice President as she still has yet to visit the southern border amid record high levels of illegal migration.
The White House said under the Trump administration, 52 miles of wall where no barrier previously existed was built, with some wall segments costing taxpayers up to $46 million per mile.
"The effort diverted critical resources away from military training facilities and schools, and caused serious risks to life, safety, and the environment," the statement added."It also took attention away from genuine security challenges, like drug smuggling and human trafficking." Abbott said he plans to build his own wall along the state's border with Mexico, although it is unclear if he has the resources, funds or authority to do so."Later this week, I will unveil our plans to build a border wall. The Lone Star State will do what Biden REFUSES to do—protect our citizens along the southern border."Donald Trump could visit the U.S.-Mexico with Texas Governor Greg Abbott before the current Vice President.
