Question of the Week: Should the Trump administration move forward with its border wall project in Arizona over a Native American tribe’s objections?

Posted

The Trump administration has resumed construction of a stretch of border wall in southern Arizona along part of the Tohono O’odham tribal land, despite protests from the tribe. U.S. Customs and Border Protection says the area is a dangerous smuggling route and that building the wall will close a longstanding security gap. Tohono O’odham Nation members have accused the administration of trespassing and say the construction will damage land sacred to the tribe.
