Millions of Indiana Air National Guard funding redirected for border fence

Some of the Pentagon funds President Trump is diverting to start building the border wall will come from Indiana.
The Crane ammunition plant and the Indiana Air National Guard base in Terre Haute were supposed to get $24 million early next year for construction projects.
Instead, those projects are part of $3.8 billion the Pentagon is redirecting to build 60 miles of border fence.
Indiana Senator Mike Braun (R) told WISH-TV while it’s “sad” that Indiana projects are affected, it’s a necessary step to tighten border security.
He says the projects aren’t being canceled, just delayed.
