Trump Rally In El Paso

Coming from my point of view, Trump is doing everything in his power to get the wall bordering Mexico built by all means necessary. Recently he ordered a government shutdown which lasted the longest ever in government history. In the article written by Jamie Hancock states that lawmakers even offered 1.3 billion dollars in funding to avoid another government shutdown. At the same time, the Senate candidate Beto O'Rourke led a rally to protest against Trump's interpretation of the city, which he calls a "dangerous city that a border wall is needed to protect." A bill that is in the process of being passed and is on its way awaiting Senate approval may be used to limit local government budgets and spending by 900 million. That money comes from taxpayers like every working person in the economy has to pay. With the passing of this bill, Texans may be able to keep their property taxes. That sounds good but we pay taxes for a reason, either it's for school funding or commercial projects. Everybody loves the idea of keeping their money, but does it do more harm than good in the long run? The article is worth a read, due to the fact that it affects most of the working class, which includes almost a large percentage of college students as well. For me, I love the idea of being able to keep my hard-earned money, but with everything comes a price.
