WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Donald Trump will visit a section of a U.S.-Mexican border fence in Arizona on Tuesday as he seeks congressional funding for the wall he wants built, administration officials said on Monday.

Trump, who has struggled to persuade the Republican-led Congress to approve funding for a project many see as unnecessary, is to visit a border facility at Yuma, Arizona.
