US President Donald Trump has vetoed a bid from Congress to oppose his declaration of a national emergency at the US-Mexico border.
Lawmakers had earlier passed a rejection resolution of Trump's pledge to build a border wall.
However they'll now need a two-thirds majority in both chambers to override the veto.
Trump said as president, "the protection of the nation" is his highest duty.
It's the first veto Trump's presidency.
