Stop the Wasteful Border Wall—Redirect Materials to Community Needs
Related Article: Firm to Return $350M in Border Wall Materials to Govt - kmjnow.com - Friday, August 15, 2025, 4:27:10 PM Eastern Daylight Time
Target: Department of Homeland Security; U.S. Customs and Border Protection; U.S. Congress
Goal: Convince the Department of Homeland Security and U.S. Customs and Border Protection to redirect unused border wall materials to support housing, infrastructure, and environmental restoration projects, rather than resuming wall construction.
The return of $350 million in unused border wall materials to the federal government presents a critical opportunity to rethink priorities. The border wall has long been criticized for its ineffectiveness, environmental harm, and negative impact on border communities and migrants. With the materials now back in government hands, we call on officials to halt any plans to resume wall construction and instead invest these resources in projects that benefit people and the planet.
Redirecting these materials could help address the housing crisis, repair critical infrastructure, and support environmental restoration in border regions and beyond. This approach would not only save taxpayer dollars but also promote justice, sustainability, and community well-being. We urge the Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, and Congress to listen to the voices of border communities and all Americans who demand a more humane and constructive use of public resources.
Key Demands
- Permanently halt all new construction of the southern border wall.
- Redirect unused border wall materials to affordable housing, public infrastructure, and environmental restoration projects in border communities.
- Engage with local communities, Indigenous groups, and environmental experts to determine the best uses for the materials.
- Conduct a transparent public accounting of the costs and impacts of border wall construction and material repurposing.
- Invest in humane immigration policies and community support services instead of border militarization.
