Border wall work pauses inside Big Bend
The Trump administration temporarily paused border wall construction at Big Bend National Park in Texas while U.S.
Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Rodney Scott visits the site, Scott announced Monday.
Why it matters: The wall's construction inside the national park has been the subject of bipartisan pushback and criticism that the job has been rushed, and is damaging to the environment.
What they're saying: "Last night, I put a pause on all activity in that park as far as construction goes till I can get down there and do a personal evaluation, talk to some stakeholders, talk to some local law enforcement in that area," Scott said in a video posted to X.
"More to follow this week." This is a breaking news story and will be updated.
