Trump’s planned DC arch faces new lawsuit

Local authorities in Arlington, Virginia, have sued the U.S. Department of the Interior and the National Park Service to block Donald Trump’s proposed triumphal arch project, which could be approved as early as next month. The 250-foot arch, modeled after the Arc de Triomphe, is planned near Arlington National Cemetery, across the Potomac River from Washington. The lawsuit claims the project will cause significant harm by disrupting traffic and flight paths, and alleges the National Park Service failed to conduct a thorough review, violating environmental laws.
