Construction projects have been paused by Customs and Border Patrol Commissioner Rodney Scott. This pause is for a personal evaluation and to discuss with stakeholders. The projects in question are located inside Big Bend National Park.

A hearing is scheduled for next week regarding requests for an emergency restraining order to stop the project. There are multiple lawsuits related to this issue.

Further details on the project and the efforts to stop it are available, including statements from those involved, such as a former park worker who is now leading the effort to save the park.
