Veterans and preservationists sue Trump administration to stop 250-foot arch near Arlington Cemetery, citing harm to historic views and solemnity.
Three veterans and a preservationist have sued the Trump administration over plans to build a 250-foot arch near Arlington National Cemetery, arguing it would disrupt historic sightlines to the Lincoln Memorial and harm the site’s solemn character.
Filed in U.S. District Court, the lawsuit seeks to halt construction until Congress and federal agencies review the project, which has not yet been formally submitted.
Critics, including veterans and historians, say the arch would overshadow existing memorials, diminish the area’s historical integrity, and turn a sacred space into a political spectacle.
A recent poll shows 52% of Americans oppose the project.
The White House has not commented, while Trump has pushed to begin construction soon.
