Lista 3 de 3 sítios de sepultamento indígena danificados pela construção da parede de fronteira dos EUA: relatório do governo.

Trump officials “estavam lamentavelmente despreparados para o ninho de vespas que provocaram porque não tinham ideia de quanto amamos este lugar”, disse David Keller, arqueólogo e historiador especializado no Big Bend e que vive na região, em uma coletiva de imprensa anunciando a ação judicial na segunda-feira.

The lawsuit was filed by Conserve Big Bend and six landowners, with the support of dozens more people along the border.

In Arizona, federal officials are pushing ahead with construction of the border infrastructure, even though it cuts through land belonging to the Tohono O’odham Nation, an Indigenous tribe that has said it does not want the barrier and that it is unnecessary.

In Texas, the effort has run up against numerous lawsuits and bipartisan opposition from sheriffs, elected officials, tour guides, environmental groups and landowners.

As part of its wall-building efforts, the administration has waived numerous regulations and statutes designed to protect the environment, archaeology or wildlife, on the basis that there is an urgent need to protect the border in what the US Department of Homeland Security has called areas of “high illegal entry”.

Mas, na ação judicial anunciada na segunda‑feira, os autores argumentam que, no que diz respeito à região de Big Bend, essa não é uma descrição precisa. Eles citam estatísticas históricas do US Customs and Border Protection que mostram o quão poucos cruzam a fronteira em Big Bend em comparação com outras áreas ao longo da fronteira EUA‑México.

Big Bend has about 805km (500 miles) of border, roughly one quarter of the total length of the border with Mexico from the Pacific Ocean to the Gulf of Mexico. But the region accounted for only about 1 percent of arrests, according to the lawsuit.
