President Threatens Government Shutdown Over Border Wall Funding

President Trump has made threats about forcing a shutdown of the federal government over funding of a border wall with Mexico.

South Dakota Senator John Thune says more dollars are being allocated to border security.

Thune says he supports doing more on the southern border.

Thune says several of the appropriations bill already passed have funding for more security.

Cost estimates for a border wall like the President wants range up and over twenty five billion dollars.
