President Donald Trump is vowing to continue to fight for border wall funding during a speech in New Orleans.
Trump spoke at a farm convention Monday, declaring: "When it comes to keeping the American people safe, I will never, ever back down."
Trump spent much of his remarks justifying his position, insisting that a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border is needed on security and humanitarian grounds.
Trump says he asked Congress for a "steel barrier" because we "need strength."
Trump is locked in an impasse with congressional Democrats. He has demanded $5.7 billion in wall funding.
