Trump Admin Pauses Border Wall in Big Bend Park

Trump Administration Pauses Border Wall in Big Bend National Park: Local Protest and Tech Switch
The Trump administration has temporarily halted plans to build a massive border wall through Big Bend National Park in West Texas, following months of opposition. The original proposal, which involved a 150-mile stretch of 30-foot-tall barrier, faced criticism from local leaders, sheriffs, and environmental groups. The Save Big Bend coalition, a bipartisan group, is rallying at the Texas Capitols south steps on Saturday to protest the plan. The U.S. Customs and Border Protections Smart Wall Map now lists the Big Bend project as technology-only, focusing on detection tech instead of physical barriers. The future of the wall project remains uncertain as the rally approaches.
