Construction on a stretch of the U.S.-Mexico border wall kicked off Friday in San Diego, Calif., U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials said. “The San Diego Sector wall construction is one of Border Patrol’s top priority projects,” the statement said. “Under this President’s leadership, we have a renewed commitment to secure our border,” said Ronald Vitiello, CBP's acting deputy commissioner. “The new primary wall project represents an important milestone in our work to secure the international border. The construction in San Diego follows projects already underway on two miles of wall in Calexico, California and 20 miles of wall in Santa Teresa, N.M., the CBP said.
