Trump threatens government shutdown in September if no wall funding

President Donald Trump on Saturday threatened to shut down the federal government in September if Congress did not provide more funding to build a wall on the border with Mexico.

‘That wall has started, we have 1.6billion (dollars),’ Trump said at a campaign rally in Washington, Michigan.

‘We come up again on September 28th and if we don’t get border security we will have no choice, we will close down the country because we need border security.’

Trump made a similar threat in March to push for changes in immigration law that he says would prevent criminals from entering the country.

The government briefly shut down in January over immigration.
