President Joe Biden on Wednesday reported the issuance of his proclamation to terminate the national emergency at the Southern border.

Biden informed Congress in a letter on Wednesday of his January decision to terminate Proclamation 9844, in which former President Donald Trump declared the national emergency at the Southern border in February of 2019.

“I have determined that the declaration of a national emergency at our southern border was unwarranted. I have also announced that it shall be the policy of my Administration that no more American taxpayer dollars be diverted to construct a border wall, and that I am directing a careful review of all resources appropriated or redirected to that end.”
