D.C., Virginia file lawsuit to block Trump's proposed arch

President Trump's plans to build a triumphal arch near the Arlington National Cemetery may be hitting a roadblock. Officials in Washington, D.C. and Virginia filed a federal lawsuit yesterday to block its construction. The suit argues that the planned 250-foot structure would inflict irreparable harm on both jurisdictions. That includes disruption of local traffic, environmental impacts, and threats to security and emergency preparations. The Trump administration has said the construction could begin as soon as next week if final plans get approved.
