Beach, florida where the president plans to leave and head back to washington. tell us about this request. reporter: the president is asking for $6 billion in wall spending. as you know, he s specifically asking congress for $8.6 billion to fund his ball along the southern border with mexico. this is the first time the trump administration is asking congress or, rather, asking for funding for the border wall from different sources. he s asking for $5 billion from customs and border protection and another $3.6 billion from military construction funds at the pentagon. separately mr. trump is also asking for an additional $3.6 billion in military construction funds from the pentagon to reimburse money he is spending through his national emergency declaration. to make that simpler, the president is asking congress to reimburse him for money that he went around them to get to then spend on his promised border wall with mexico. democrats are not happy about ....
