A federal judge in Texas has prohibited the Biden administration from selling surplus border wall materials and reallocating funds designated for wall construction.
A federal judge in Texas ruled that the Biden administration cannot sell any materials intended for the border wall and cannot use funds allocated by Congress for border wall construction for any other purposes. This ruling comes after the government auctioned off surplus wall materials on GovPlanet, sparking controversy. Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick initially planned to purchase the materials and donate them to the incoming Trump administration but later stated they were in poor condition.
The judge's ruling does not affect the materials already listed for auction, as they have been sold. Patrick shared a text message with President-elect Trump stating that Texas is in discussions with the auctioneer to hold the materials until after the inauguration. President-elect Trump celebrated the ruling as a major victory for national security
