Presidential allies have stated declaring a national emergency would allow the president to use disaster relief and military construction funds to begin constructing a wall.

If the President does declare a national emergency, it would likely be immediately challenged in Congress, but would likely require two thirds of both chambers to support ending the emergency due to president veto power. Kennedy says after that, it would likely be taken up in the high court.

Cut 7 (09) “…heading.”

Analysts predict such a move would tie up wall construction well into 2020.

Kennedy says such a move would only be necessary if Democrats refuse to back down on their opposition to border wall construction, and negotiations hinge on one thing…

Cut 8 (11) “…a wall.”
