As President Trump pushes forward with his promised U.S.-Mexico border wall, companies competing for the chance to work on the multi-billion-dollar project are facing mounting boycotts from local Democratic lawmakers moving to blacklist the border builders.
Coordinated efforts have been launched in California, Arizona, Illinois, New York and Rhode Island that would prohibit cities and towns from doing any official business with the companies as part of a larger resistance strategy to delay construction of the controversial wall.
Most recently, Berkeley’s City Council in California approved an ordinance that would ban it from contracting with companies involved in the construction.

Politicians hurting companies simply because the bid on work! That's growth stifling isn't it!?
It won't make any difference when sanctuary cities and states lose all their federal funds they won't have any money to hire any contractors anyway.
Why are dumbocrats so against the interests of this country and people?
Democrats for destroying America at work.
Easy one to solve. Brief Fed law that cities, counties, states acting this way lose all Federal funds associated with the projects, including pass-through or pass-down from the state. They're all hooked on the Federal dollar. Let's help them to kick the habit.
They can be sued for discrimination.
The contractors involved are not falling to their threats. They see it as their civic duty. Democrats are shit out of luck with this on me.
This is discrimination and can be prosecuted, however there are probably so many other customers supporting these contractors and giving them new business these contractors are probably overwhelmed by new business customers wanting to do business with them.
THAT'S what it's all about! With the new tax deal and new business happening, there's no time to bother with petty lawsuits against the Dems, it's time to make good money in a better market in our improved economy!
MAGA is working GREAT!
Meanwhile, the "Progressives" are sitting by wondering, "What Happened?" with Hillary! LOL!
We are all off making new money and hoping Hillary will be brought up on her proper charges soon.
