Biden Admin Cancels National Emergency Order Used by Trump to Build U.S.-Mexico Wall
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

U.S.-Mexico border wall. This comes as immigrant justice advocates
continue to denounce President Biden's interest in ramping up
surveillance technology at the southern border, which opponents refer to
as a "virtual wall."
