Texas appears to have quietly stopped funding its plans to construct its own border wall with Mexico, marking what could be the end of a contentious and expensive project. The state's decision comes after years of attempts to build a barrier along the US-Mexico border, which was initially designed to combat immigration but has been marred by controversy and opposition. Without funding, it is unclear whether construction will proceed or if the plans will remain abandoned. The move marks a significant shift in Texas' approach to border security.
