Judge blocks construction of parts of border wall under emergency declaration

The order applies to around 51 miles of fence. The ACLU called it "a win for our system of checks and balances, the rule of law, and border communities."

"Congress's 'absolute' control over federal expenditures — even when that control may frustrate the desires of the Executive Branch regarding initiatives it views as important — is not a bug in our constitutional system. It is a feature of that system, and an essential one," U.S. District Judge Haywood S. Gilliam wrote in the ruling.
