It is predicted that President Donald Trump will be signing a border agreement to forestall another government shutdown. However, he has also said he plans to declare a National Emergency in order to continue with his plan to build a southern border wall. After this announcement, late Thursday afternoon, Fourth District Congressman, Steve King, released a statement of support. King says he has been urging the president to make this move for months. He not only supports the decision, he believes that President Trump is doing this on solid Constitutional grounds. “I hope he uses this authority to build all of the wall that is needed, which means extending it until illegal aliens stop going around the end,” King says. “Americans understand that if a 2,000 mile wall facilitated illegal immigration, Democrats would be clamoring for a National Emergency of their own to build it. The Democrats just cannot be trusted to place the security interests of the American public over Democrats’ political interests in an open borders agenda which places the desires of illegal aliens above the needs and wishes of the American people.”
