On Thursday, February 14th, 2019, The CNN published the article titled "Trump will sign bill to avoid shutdown, then declare national emergency to free billions for border wall".
Let me summarize about some previous news related to this article. President Trump started a demand for $5.7 billion in federal funds for a US- Mexico border wall. Why? Because Trump wants to manage illegal immigration into our country strictly. His decision has been opposed by Congress since it obviously costs billions from the federal funds. On Dec 22, 2018, the United States federal government shutdown for 35 days because the Republican President Donald Trump could not agree on an appropriation bill to fund the operations of the federal government and agencies. Shutdown time lasts 35 days and the federal government is back to normal on Jan 25, 2019. The article link listed above mentioned that President Trump agrees to sign bills to avoid government shutdown but he still used his power of the executive branch’s leader to declare a variety of administration funding sources to help finance construction of his wall on the border. He announced that the national emergency declaration is expected to be one part of that. He also mentioned that 8 billions is the range of the fund. I think this article breaks out some main points that we all concern how the president Trump reacts when he doesn't give up the battle with US government about the border wall.
