Pence Launches Petition Asking Congress to Fund Border Wall ahead of Spending Deadline
[NR] Vice President Mike Pence has launched an official petition demanding Congress set aside funds to build the wall on America’s border with Mexico that was President Trump’s signature campaign promise.

The "Official Build the Wall Petition" aims to "extinguish" rumors that the plan for the wall is doomed due to lack of funding, the vice president claimed in an email Friday.

"Despite what you might hear from the talking heads in the media, this administration is 100% committed to building a wall along the southern border of the United States of America," he wrote. "Now liberals in the Senate need to hear that YOU, the American people, are ALSO 100% committed to seeing that critical wall built along the border."

Trump visited San Diego this week to evaluate eight border-wall prototypes. The Department of Homeland Security’s Customs and Border Protection agency is expected to choose a design from among them soon.

"If we don’t have a wall system, we’re not going to have a country," Trump tweeted after his California visit.
