Rep Cawthorn Introduces Bill to Declare Border Wall a National Monument

Neon Nettle-

Freshman GOP Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-NC) has introduced a bill to protect President Donald Trump’s border wall by declaring it a national monument.

The Republican congressman’s legislation, named the “Donument Act” in honor of Trump, will establish the “Southern Border Wall National Monument.”

By declaring the wall along the U.S.-Mexico border a national monument, the bill will thereby give the wall “permanent protection from alteration,” according to a press release from Cawthorn’s office.

“The national monument would consist of 289,920 acres of land in California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas,” and “the secretary of interior would be in charge of administration of the monument,” the Charlotte Observer reported.

“For four years President Trump worked to secure the southern border of the United States by constructing a wall in places where there was little to no fencing,” Cawthorn said in a statement. read more

  1. That would be a great place to celebrate the 4th of July.
    With about 30 0r 40 thousand patriots instead of the three or four family members Biden says is allowed – if we’re good. :rolleyes
