Texas Capital Proposes Ban on Businesses
Awarded Border Wall Contracts < >
Members of the Austin City Council are proposing a resolution to stop doing business with contractors involved in building President Trump’s proposed border wall.
The resolution is being offered by five members. The effort is led by Council Member Della Garza. The members are asking that the city manager conduct a study of the potential impacts a border wall might have on Texas capital city, the Austin Monitor reported. Austin is located 225 miles from the nearest point of U.S. border with Mexico.
Council Member Garza told the local news outlet that a border wall would not make “Texas or any other state safer, or reduce crime.”
The council is scheduled to vote on the matter on Thursday. If it passes, the city would join the ranks of Tucson and Flagstaff, Arizona, and San Diego, California, in telling city contractors they do not want them helping to design, construct, or finance the proposed border wall projects.
