We are going to spend it on a wall.
$15 billion is also three times as much money as the Federal
Government spends to help the homeless every year. For the cost of this
wall, we could build the Navy the 11th aircraft carrier that it needs. For 60 times less--or 1-60th--we could finish the modernization of the
Otay Mesa border crossing, which is the third busiest commercial port
of entry along our southern border and which facilitates $35 billion in
trade every year. What are we doing here? Unlike President Trump's wall, this investment will support long-term
job creation and increase revenues and is a much more responsible way
to spend American taxpayer dollars.
