[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3203532, member: 5412"] It might still happen. Tennessee is pushing a bill that will levy a tax on money sent by wire to Mexico. As we all know, illegals and others on green cards send billions of dollars annually across the border. Tennessee is proposing to use the tax to fund the wall. They aren't alone. Montana, Arizona, and West Virginia are also proposing this legislative action.
