President Biden is reportedly under investigation over his decision to stop billions of dollars allocated to the construction of the Trump administration’s border wall. Senate Republicans wrote a letter to the Government Accountability Office to review Biden’s order which paused the funds which were meant to go towards companies with the responsibility of finishing the wall.

The Daily Wire reports:

“Now the Government Accountability Office is launching a review to determine whether the new president broke the law by freezing the money in violation of budget rules designed to keep Congress in control of the cash flow,” Politico reported. “The probe highlights the challenge presidents have historically faced in fulfilling campaign promises that require money to be spent — or suspended — at odds with Congress’ intent.”

Forty Senate Republicans said in a letter to the Government Accountability Office that in “the weeks that followed” Biden suspending construction of the border wall that “operational control of our southern border was comprised and a humanitarian and national security crisis has ensued.”

The President’s actions directly contributed to this unfortunate, yet entirely avoidable, scenario. They are also a blatant violation of federal law and infringe on Congress’s constitutional power of the purse. We write regarding these actions. We believe they violated the Impoundment Control Act (ICA), as interpreted by your office, and we request your legal opinion on the matter. Prompt action to end these violations is required to restore order at the border.

More than 60 Republican House lawmakers joined their Senate colleagues on Tuesday in pushing the GAO to investigate the matter.

The news comes as border agents have reportedly been overwhelmed by the tidal wave of immigrants flooding the border. The Biden administration has faced harsh criticism for its handling of the border crisis as Biden repeatedly continues to put the wants and needs of illegal immigrants above those of American citizens.
