U.S President Trump has confirmed he will use emergency powers to build a wall on the US border with Mexico, saying "walls work".
Building the wall was a key pledge of Trump's campaign, but Democrats have described the move as a "gross abuse of power".
He is due to sign the plan along with a spending bill aimed at preventing a repeat of a recent government shutdown.
He announced the plan after Congress refused to pay for a wall in the bill.
Senior Democrats immediately said that they would challenge the move in the courts.
The declaration will give Trump access to billions of dollars for his project.
