House Committee Asks For Investigation Into $400M Border Wall Contract

A $400 million contract was awarded to Fisher Sand and Gravel to build a border wall section between Mexico and Arizona. The committee's chairman requested a review due to concerns about potential inappropriate influence on the decision, as the company had not previously received a construction contract and had issues with meeting requirements. Despite these concerns, President Trump reportedly urged officials to select Fisher Sand and Gravel. The project is set to be completed by December 30th of next year.
