Evidence

The proclamation says that in the first six months of the term the President "reinstated the Remain in Mexico policy" and that the One Big Beautiful Bill "authorizes the construction of hundreds of miles of new border wall."

Official White House confirmation that both the Remain in Mexico policy and new border wall construction were active government actions by late February 2026.

CBP states that it has more than 100 miles of new border wall and waterborne barrier funded with prior-year appropriations in various stages of planning and construction, and that the Border Wall System is a priority under the current administration.

Official CBP evidence that border wall construction was underway, not merely promised, with projects in planning and construction stages.

Assessments

partial later_term

The cited federal actions indicate that the southern border wall effort and Remain in Mexico policy were advanced or reinstated after the relevant campaign period. However, the evidence provided attributes completion to the White House, CBP, and later federal legislation, not specifically to Mike Bost through sponsorship, authorship, or a clearly documented material role. Because the promise was to support these policies and the outcomes occurred in the federal context, this merits partial credit rather than full delivery on the candidate's own record.
