The construction of the wall on the southern border has been suspended, Customs and Border Protection (CBP) confirmed on Jan. 27, one week after President Joe Biden signed an executive order ordering the halt.

“CBP, in coordination with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, has suspended wall construction projects except for activities that are safety related,” CBP said in a statement, according to Fox News. “All projects are in compliance with the President’s Proclamation.”
