Subject: Just Released – CPB Status Paper – Planning 509 Miles of Border Fence With $9.6 Billion

To: century21minuteman@sbcglobal.netThis is a brand new status paper from the US Customs Border Protection on their plans at this time to build 509 miles of border fence, wall, barrier, whatever you want to call it, with $9.8 billion in funding.It seems they are completing the requirements of the Secure Fence Act of 2006 in more nearly the way it should have been done from the beginning. To do more than that would probably require a new law by Congress.The Secure Fence Act called for almost 800 miles of fence and also for double fence. 200-300 miles of the existing fence is probably already acceptable.Last week when Trump was at the border they said they would construct a double fence where it makes sense, that is probably areas of large urban populations and/or close to highways where illegals can be picked up.San Diego, Ca
