The Department of Homeland Security has waived environmental laws to fast-track border barrier construction through Texas's Big Bend National Park and Big Bend Ranch State Park. This development threatens to damage roadless canyon country, block river access, fragment wildlife habitats for species like black bears and bighorns, and introduce artificial light pollution to Big Bend’s iconic night skies.

The Center for Biological Diversity is already in court to halt construction and access public records. An advocate condemned the administration's "disdain" for public lands, vowing to protect this "crown-jewel national park."

The Department of Homeland Security has waived environmental laws to fast-track border barriers and roads through Texas' Big Bend National Park and Big Bend Ranch State Park. This construction threatens to damage roadless canyon country, block river access, fragment vital wildlife habitat for black bears and bighorns, and pollute Big Bend’s iconic night skies with artificial light.

Our organization is already in court to halt these plans and access public construction records. An advocate condemned the administration's "disgraceful" disregard for public lands, vowing to protect this "crown-jewel national park" and the Rio Grande.
