The mayor of Sunland Park, New Mexico, has issued a cease-and-desist order to a private group that raised millions to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border.
The cease-and-desist order was issued on Tuesday after it was determined that the group did not have the proper permits for construction, city spokesperson Peter Ibardo told The Texas Tribune. The company owns the land where the wall was partially constructed over the Memorial Day weekend, the Tribune said.
Kobach told the Tribune that construction for the half-mile length of wall a few miles from El Paso, Texas, cost between $6 and $8 million. The section of wall marks the first construction project from the group which previously faced controversy as donors questioned if the promised project would ever materialize after months passed with no updates on the progress of the wall.
Speaking to KTMS, Kobach said that the organization plans to turn the wall over to U.S. Customs and Border Patrol once construction is complete.
Sunland, NM.. Cartels owned and operated. Mayor needs donations? BUILD THE WALL and sue the city!!! Mayor plan on removing your front door
She wants them to stop because they're making the government look foolish spending way less than what it would take the government & it's tons of red tape.
If realDonaldTrump was against building this wall, you know damn well that his haters would be fighting to put one up

Group that raised millions to build border wall begins construction in New Mexico'Buckle up, we're just getting started! If we can get this much done in three days, imagine what's about to be accomplished,' the group posted on its Facebook page. Conservatives are the stupidest capitalists of all time, they honestly think a wall will stop black markets from interacting between US/Mex border? I guess they have no faith in free market ingenuity or no understanding of demand. Good luck with that Raise your hand if you think this will be done as cheaply and ineffectively as possible...

This unmitigated disaster is courtesy of democrats & activist liberal judges. The judiciary has become a dangerous far left weapon ignoring the constitution & US Supreme Court precedent to rule based on their political beliefs while the democrats are just power hungry crazy. This is but 1 problem, countless more just as needing, so who can bring all suffering 2 it's conclusion, there is only one. If seekers R truly searching, then pay attention 2 those teaching freely Jehovah's Word. False preachers serving man proving false 2 God. R failing bad.
