Summary

Construction has kicked off on a massive 47-mile steel border wall in west Texas’ Big Bend region, part of a nationwide push to build 30-foot barriers at a record pace—12 miles per week. Despite fierce opposition from landowners, environmentalists, and ranchers who argue the remote area isn’t a hotspot for crossings and that the wall harms ecosystems and private property, the administration presses ahead. Activists vow to keep fighting, rallying locals and lawmakers, while CBP faces resistance ranging from legal battles to cultural concerns over sacred lands.
