GOP lawmakers rail against auctioned off border wall materials under Biden: ‘Abuse of taxpayer dollars’

Republicans want answers from White House about reported auction of border wall materials

Republicans on the Senate Armed Services Committee criticized Biden’s reported sale of approximately $260 million worth of unused border wall materials, urging the immediate suspension of ongoing auctions in a letter to the secretary of Defense on Tuesday.

“We are deeply disappointed to learn that rather than using construction materials that were purchased to secure the southwest border for that purpose, the Department of Defense has begun auctioning these materials off for other purposes,” the letter stated.

The letter was signed by every Republican member on the Armed Services Committee, including Sens. Eric Schmitt of Missouri, Tommy Tuberville of Alabama, Joni Ernst of Iowa, and Roger Wicker of Mississippi, the committee’s ranking member.
