Trump Administration May Extend Border Wall in Texas Town, Judge Says
· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
A federal judge has ruled that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) can proceed with plans to build a section of border wall in Presidio, Texas, despite local concerns about potential flooding. The decision, announced on Sunday, is seen as a win for the Trump administration's $46 billion border wall initiative. Presidio, a town of about 3,200 residents, argued that the wall could compromise flood protection levees. However, the judge dismissed these concerns, stating that the arguments were unlikely to succeed in court. The DHS continues to push forward with construction plans, aiming to have a first phase completed by next year.
