Washington, DC -- Today, the Senate voted to shut down Trump’s national emergency that he declared in February as a mechanism for taking funds from the military budget for border walls. The funding transfers have already cut more than 125 military projects that benefit service families and military readiness like retirement and schools for military youth. In addition to the passage of the Senate resolution, the Sierra Club, American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), and Southern Border Communities Coalition (SBCC)’s challenge of Trump’s national emergency declaration will be heard by the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals on November 18th. A ruling in favor of the groups would reverse Trump’s national emergency declaration and halt the fund transfers.
