The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday advised a lower court to reconsider earlier decisions that blocked an estimated $3.6 billion from being used for construction of the U.S.-Mexico border wall championed by former President Donald Trump.
After taking office in January, President Joe Biden has sought to halt funding for the border wall construction that was pushed by his predecessor. The Biden administration had argued that the Supreme Court did not need to weigh in on the border wall funding case because the project was closed down by the new administration.
The Supreme Court returned the case to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit “with instructions to direct the District Court to vacate its judgments,” the Supreme Court wrote in its Monday order.
