US Judge Says No to Democratic Effort to Stop Trump’s Border Wall Funds

 

A federal judge has rejected a lawsuit that House Democrats had wanted to use to block President Donald Trump’s plan to divert funds to help build a border wall.

 

District Court Judge Trevor McFadden of the District of Columbia ruled that the lawsuit lacked legal standing (pdf). Democrats wanted to sue Trump for using money appropriated by Congress for other purposes to build the wall.

 

“This is a case about whether one chamber of Congress has the ‘constitutional means’ to conscript the Judiciary in a political turf war with the President over the implementation of legislation,” McFadden wrote.

 

“[W]hile the Constitution bestows upon Members of the House many powers, it does not grant them standing to hale the Executive Branch into court claiming a dilution of Congress’s legislative authority,” he added.

 

“The Court therefore lacks jurisdiction to hear the House’s claims and will deny its motion.”

 

The Justice Department supported McFadden’s ruling. In a statement, a department spokesman said: “The court rightly ruled that the House of Representatives cannot ask the judiciary to take its side in political disputes and cannot use federal courts to accomplish through litigation what it cannot achieve using the tools the Constitution gives to Congress.”

 

Democrats were reviewing the ruling and are deciding whether to appeal, a spokesman for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi told Reuters.

 

Earlier on May 24, judge Haywood Gilliam Jr. had blocked $1 billion in Defense Department funds that Trump had wanted to use toward the border wall. On May 30, Gilliam rejected the government’s efforts to start constructing the wall while it appeals to a higher court.

 

Securing Funding for Border Crisis

 

Since taking office, Trump has demanded that Congress fund construction of a wall on the southern border—his landmark campaign promise. Democrats, whose votes are needed to reach the 60-vote threshold in the Senate, have thwarted all attempts.

 

In December last year when the president stood by his campaign promise and refused to sign the spending bill that arrived on his desk withholding funds for a border wall, Congress missed a deadline to fund the government, triggering a partial shutdown. The shutdown stretched on for 35 days, between Dec. 22 and Jan. 25, the longest in United States history.
