Will Thom Tillis Cave To White House Again On Border Wall Funding After Allowing $80 Million To Be Raided From NC Bases?

Press Release

Following news that the White House will divert an additional $7.2 billion in Pentagon funding for border wall construction, all eyes are on Senator Thom Tillis, who previously allowed $80 million to be diverted from North Carolina military bases in order to pay for the wall.

Here are key questions for Senator Tillis following this news:

Will Thom Tillis demand answers about where the additional funding will come from, and whether any additional funds will be diverted from North Carolina before he supports raiding these funds?

Will Thom Tillis demand answers about how raiding additional funds and preventing key military projects from moving forward puts our national security at risk?

Tillis failed to protect North Carolina military project funds and caved to the president, losing $80 million for bases across the state. Why should North Carolinians trust him to protect other projects from losing critical funding?

Cal Cunningham, an Army veteran of Iraq and Afghanistan, has repeatedly called out Tillis' failure on behalf of North Carolina military families, especially for Tillis' support for the President's national emergency and his votes to knowingly take $80 million from the state's military installations.
