Trump Signs Immigration Orders to Build Mexico Wall
U.S. President Donald Trump is set Wednesday has signed orders to begin construction of a wall along the country's southern border with Mexico to thwart illegal migration, and confront American cities that are protecting undocumented migrants.
White House spokesman Sean Spicer said the U.S. would build more detention facilities along the border to house migrants who cross the border and then give them a "one-way ticket back to the country of their origin." He said the Trump administration would end what he called the "dangerous catch and release program" border agents have employed, eliciting promises from migrants to appear later in court, which they then have often ignored.
