Mexico commits $1.5B to U.S. to modernize border
- Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador committed to investing $1.5 billion to improve infrastructure at the US-Mexico border.
- López Obrador and President Biden’s meeting took place nearly a month after the Mexican president boycotted the Summit of the Americas hosted by the U.S.
- The joint effort will span multiple projects between 2022 and 2024.
Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador committed on Tuesday to invest $1.5 billion in “smart” technology at the U.S.-Mexico border following a meeting with President Joe Biden.
The two leaders released a joint statement that said they would fund a joint infrastructure effort to improve security and efficiency at the southern border.
The statement said that the bipartisan infrastructure law Biden signed into law last fall would contribute $3.4 billion to 26 modernization projects at land ports of entry and that Mexico agreed to invest $1.5 billion in “border infrastructure” over the next two years.

Bull Shit. Biden is selling us down the river. He is only responding to the border problem so some screwed up Americans, who don’t follow the politics, will vote for the old fart.
A waste of bandwidth.
