WASHINGTON, July 27 -- House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, D-Maryland, issued the following statement on the Supreme Court's ruling on the border wall:
"I am deeply alarmed by the Supreme Court's ruling, and I strongly disagree with the President's efforts to take funds from the military to build an expensive and ineffective wall at our border.
"His reprogramming of funds subverts the will of Congress and undermines the power of the purse.
