Border Wall Contractors Are Facing The Hardest Obstacle To Overcome

As president Trump tried to push forward with his patented wall which is set to be a border between the Unites States and Mexico, a few states have started to sign petitions that would prevent any cities or towns within the state from hiring any construction crews that work on Trump’s wall.

Coordinated efforts have been launched in California, Arizona, Illinois, New York and Rhode Island to black-ball construction crews that participate in the building effort.

Most recently, Berkeley’s City Council in California approved an ordinance that would ban it from contracting with companies involved in the construction.

The proposal, drafted by Mayor Jesse Arreguin and Councilmembers Ben Bartless, Sophie Hahn and Cheryl Davila, argues that the wall would harm California’s prosperity.

Arreguin called the border wall a “highly impractical response to America’s broken immigration system, and a symbol of hatred that will only further demonize the people of Mexican and Latin American descent.”

The provision which blocks business going to these construction crews, was recently expanded to include anybody who plans the wall, designs the wall, or transports materials to the wall.
