As a caravan of thousands marches toward the U.S. from Central America, Congressman Mo Brooks (R-Huntsville) announced support for two border security measures. Brooks is backing the "Build the Wall, Enforce the Law Act," which fully funds President Trump's proposed border wall. Brooks is also co-sponsoring the "50 Votes for the Wall Act," which eliminates the 60-vote requirement for a vote in the Senate, where Democrats can block the wall with a filibuster. The measure would allow the wall to be approved with a simple majority. "Illegal aliens are a plague on America," Brooks said. Congress must act. Failing that, President Trump must fulfill his commander-in-chief duties and employ America’s military to protect American lives, America’s sovereignty, and America’s southern border."
