The American Civil Liberties Union sued the chief executive yesterday over his announcement of what he called a national emergency designed to by-pass Congress and fund a lavish and expedited wall-building scheme at the U.S. border with Mexico. The ACLU said there never was and is not now an emergency, asserting this was made clear by the President's statement that he "didn't have to do this."
The wall continues to be an acrimonious and distracting issue in the body politic. This wall is unneeded, and indeed is, as Speaker Pelosi has stated, "immoral." We do need immigration reform but more importantly we need a fair shake economically for the suffering people of Latin America. Increased funding for foreign aid through proper channels will help immensely.
