The Biden administration has waived 26 federal laws in South Texas to allow for the construction of the border wall. This decision comes after pressure from top Democrats to address the influx of migrants in the past year. During his election campaign, President Biden promised not to build any additional yards of the wall. However, he defended his administration's decision, stating that he had no choice but to use previously approved federal money for the work. The announcement has drawn criticism, with some claiming that it confirms the man-made crisis on the border and that man is Joe Biden. Despite the announcement, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas maintains that their stance against the border wall remains the same. This move by the Biden administration is seen as a contradiction to his campaign promise. The decision to waive these laws marks the administration's first use of a sweeping executive power that was often employed during the Trump presidency.
