DHS Secretary Kristi Noem announced the construction of seven miles of border wall in Arizona to enhance national security. This marks the first contract for wall building in Trump’s second administration, awarded to Granite Construction Co. for $70 million. The project uses CBP’s Fiscal Year 2021 funds. VP JD Vance shared the ambition to build a complete southern border wall by 2029. Under Trump’s first term, 458 miles were built. Illegal crossing rates have reportedly decreased up to 90% since Trump resumed office, reflecting increased security measures.
