Timeline
In January 2019, Kolfage posted a message to the GoFundMe page that he had decided that raising money through a nonprofit would be more successful. A new 501(c)(4) nonprofit was created and called We Build The Wall Inc. through which Kolfage plans to have segments of the wall privately constructed through negotiations with landowners along the border. The organization has since seen prominent politicians such as Kris Kobach and Steve Bannon take on leading roles. It began construction on a section of the proposed wall.
On July 23, 2019, Kansas Senate President Susan Wagle of Wichita filed the paperwork with the Federal Elections Commission necessary to run in the race for the vacant Senate seat. She criticized Kobach's employment in his controversial privately financed and constructed scheme to build the southern border wall. Wagle supports the building of a federally designed, bid and funded wall while saying Kobach's group undermines federal involvement. "We don’t need some rogue organization going out and building the wall."
On August 1, 2019, Kobach sent out a campaign fundraiser using both the corporate name and email list of "Wall" donors. Common Cause Vice President for policy and litigation Paul S. Ryan said, "At a minimum, this Kobach for Senate fundraising solicitation email appears to violate the 'paid for by' disclaimer requirement" for official campaign communications. Ryan specified the requirement that mandates disclosure of the financial sponsors who originate official political communications. Kobach's email might be legal if his campaign paid fair market value for use of the list. If that were the case, a "paid for by" disclaimer would be required but was not present in the solicitation. Ryan said, "If the Kobach committee did not pay fair market value for the cost of disseminating this email, then the committee has arguably committed the more serious campaign finance law violation of receiving a corporate contribution in the form of a coordinated expenditure." We Build The Wall is legally prohibited from financing federal political campaigns in any fashion. Besides the concerns raised about Kolfage himself, a week prior to the mailer, right-wing anti-immigrant, "Wall" board member and former congressman Tom Tancredo sat on the stage alongside Kobach, and endorsed him in a New Mexico rally pushing the Wall.
In December 2018, Kolfage initiated a $1 billion fundraising campaign for U.S. President Donald Trump's proposed Mexico–United States barrier on GoFundMe under the organizational title of "We Build the Wall, Inc." As of May 2019, the campaign had raised just over $22 million. Over the 2019 Memorial Day weekend, the organization constructed a 1/2 to 1-mile "weathered steel" bollard fence near El Paso on private land adjoining the US-Mexico border using $6–8 million of the donated funds. The organization says it has plans to construct further barriers on private lands adjoining the border in Texas and California.
In December 2018, Kolfage started an attempt to raise $1 billion via GoFundMe for the construction of a border wall between the United States and Mexico. Kolfage said the target figure was achievable, adding "This won't be easy, but it's our duty as citizens". In an email to the Washington Post, Kolfage stated that he began the fundraiser as "political games from both parties" have been holding back funding for the wall. Within three days, over $9 million had been raised.
Kobach's involvement with the 501(c)4, "We Build the Wall," has given cause for concern, as the fundraising and campaign mailing lists it is accumulating are prohibited from coordinating with his Senate campaign. ‘As Kobach pursues U.S. Senate, border wall group he represents leaves anger in its wake.
He was deployed to Kuwait in 2003 and to Iraq in 2004, where he served in the Air Force Security Forces. Kolfage was injured in Balad, Iraq, on September 11, 2004, when a 107 mm rocket landed 3 feet from his position, and caused the loss of both his legs and his right hand. He received a Purple Heart after his injuries, and recovered in Walter Reed Medical Center until July 2005 and later found a civilian job at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base. After his injury he began to speak publicly about his experience and recovery and filmed a campaign ad for Rep. Gabrielle Giffords in 2011. He was invited as Giffords's special guest to President Obama's State of the Union address in 2012.
Kolfage was born in Detroit, Michigan on September 21, 1982, but was raised in Waikiki, Hawaii. He married his wife, Ashley Goetz, on May 28, 2011, and the couple have two children together. Kolfage enrolled in University of Arizona with support from the Pat Tillman Foundation and graduated from the Architecture School in 2014.
