U.S. Customs and Border Protection issued a statement to the Daily Mail Thursday that contradicts President Trump’s past claims that his administration has “already built large new sections” of the wall, but said they’ll be getting to work very soon.
The CBP confirmed to the Daily Mail that no new sections of border wall have been built under the Trump administration; instead, existing walls have been renovated, supplemented, or replaced. “The first new wall project, where no barrier currently exists, is anticipated to start in April,” CBP spokesman Roger Maier told the outlet in an email.
