Pelosi refuses to support changes to Trump’s emergency powers that would give president ‘a pass’ to build border wall
Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi says that she will not consider an bill to amend American presidential emergency powers that Republicans hope could avert an embarrassing vote for Donald Trump. With Republicans in the Senate considering legislation that would reign in presidential powers, Ms Pelosi said that the bill would only serve to give Mr Trump a “pass” for his emergency declaration to build his US-Mexico border wall. “Republican Senators are proposing new legislation to allow the President to violate the Constitution just this once in order to give themselves cover,” she said in a statement.
