Trump declared an emergency at the border Feb. 15, saying this allows him to use money that Congress has appropriated for other purposes in order to build a border wall. Trump says the wall is needed to stop illegal immigration and drug trafficking. Daines supported Trump's emergency declaration, saying,"I am a northern border-state senator with a southern border crisis. It is drugs, it is meth, it is destroying our communities and families in Montana."
Paul said he thought there are at least another six Republican senators who feel the same way he does but"I don't know if they will all follow through with it" and vote to nullify the president's declaration.
