特朗普稱此刻不會宣佈全國緊急狀態

President DonAld Trump on Friday called the situation at the U.S. southern border "an invasion," but he indicated that he would not be declaring a national emergency that could give him the legal authority to begin building his long-promised wall.
特朗普總統星期五稱美國南部邊境的局勢爲“入侵”，但是他表示，不會爲了得到合法建造他長期承諾的邊境牆的權力而宣佈進入全國緊急狀態。

Trump, according to the Associated Press, said he was not looking to declare an emergency to build a wall "right now," contending that "this is something Congress can do."
據美聯社報道，川普表示，他此刻並不打算宣佈進入緊急狀態來修建隔離牆，並稱“這是國會可以做到的事情。”

Democrats have refused to vote on a budget that would include the president's request for more than $5 billion to begin construction of a permanent barrier along the Mexican border. Trump has refused to sign any government budget unless it has the funds. The standoff has led to a partial government shutdown that has now lasted 21 days, tying the record for the longest in U.S. history.
民主黨拒絕了就一項預算案進行投票，該預算案包括總統要求獲得50多億美元開始在墨西哥邊境修建永久性屏障。川普拒絕任何政府預算，除非獲得建牆資金。這場對峙造成的政府部分關門局面目前已持續了21天，平了美國曆史上政府關閉時間最長的記錄。

The lapse in funding has hit roughly a quarter of the federal government, including the Department of Homeland Security and the State Department. An estimated 800,000 federal workers are now going without paychecks.
大約四分之一的聯邦政府受到資金中斷的影響，包括國土安全部和國務院。據估計有80萬聯邦員工目前沒有領到工資。

Trump had said Thursday, during a visit to the border town of McAllen, Texas, that he might declare a national emergency.
特朗普星期四視察德克薩斯州邊境城鎮麥克艾倫時說，他有可能宣佈進入全國緊急狀態。

"We're either going to have a win, make a compromise, because I think a compromise is a win for everybody, or I will declare a national emergency," he said.
他當時說：“我們要麼達成妥協皆大歡喜，因爲我認爲妥協對各方都是勝利，要麼我就宣佈進入全國緊急狀態。”

A declaration would allow Trump to spend the money without congressional approval. It would likely bring an immediate court challenge from Democrats who say there is no emergency at the border and that the president would be overstepping his constitutional authority.
如果特朗普宣佈全國緊急狀態，就可以未經國會批准而動用資金。但是民主黨人可能會立即提出法律挑戰。民主黨人說，邊境並沒有緊急狀態，總統這樣做是超越了憲法所賦予他的權力。

Trump is blaming the government shutdown and impasse on wall funding on the Democrats, especially House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer. He says they are oblivious to national security threats and will not compromise.
特朗普把政府關門和建牆資金僵局歸咎於民主黨人，特別是衆議院議長佩洛西和參議院少數黨領袖舒默。他說，他們對國家安全視而不見，也不願意妥協。

Pelosi and Schumer say the president is obsessed with the wall and has manufactured a crisis, in part, to distract the country from his other problems.
佩洛西和舒默說，特朗普總統偏執於建牆並且製造了一場危機，部分原因是爲了轉移全國民衆對他其它問題的注意力。

They have proposed reopening the government and negotiating the wall issue separately.
佩洛西和舒默建議讓政府重新開門，同時另行談判建牆問題。
