30-Foot Border Wall Project Begins In California
Several days after President Donald Trump declared a national emergency, construction began on the fifth border wall project of his administration.
The U.S. Customs and Border Protection announced Tuesday that work has started on replacing 14 miles of a steel-mesh fence along the U.S.-Mexico border near San Diego, The Associated Press reported.
The fence is being replaced with 30-foot high steel bollards. It is actually the second layer of barrier to be put up in the area, with the first layer nearly complete. SLSCO Ltd., a company located in Galveston, Texas, scored the $101 million contract in December 2018.
The Trump administration has already awarded around $1 billion in contracts to cover 97 miles of the southern border, with the project in San Diego being one of the latest.AND THEN THERE'S THIS:

Progs complain that walls don't work. But they do when backed up by appropriate enforcement efforts. Israel is the most recent example. It won't stop all illegal immigration or all drugs, but it will be a deterrent. There are large portions of the border where there is no wall at all.
