The federal Government Accountability Office (GAO) on Tuesday said that President Joe Biden’s administration didn’t break the law when it halted wall construction along the U.S.-Mexico border.
The GAO said Biden’s order issued Jan. 20 that authorized a pause of wall construction did not violate the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act (ICA) of 1974. Biden’s order claimed that the wall, a signature campaign promise of candidate Donald Trump during 2016 campaign, is a waste of money.
