The county attorney\u2019s office is pursuing the case with legal advocacy organization Democracy Forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe Arlington County Board has filed this lawsuit because our community has the most to lose from this egregious and unlawful proposed project,\u201d Board Chair Matt de Ferranti said in a statement.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Those allegations remain contested; filing the lawsuit does not itself stop construction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Veterans\u2019 Lawsuit And Safety Concerns Add Pressure<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The county\u2019s case opens another front in an existing legal battle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Three veterans and an architectural historian have separately challenged the project in federal court in Washington, arguing that it requires congressional authorization and would obstruct historic views between the Lincoln Memorial and Arlington National Cemetery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the supplied ABC News report, the judge overseeing that case has required the administration to provide 48 hours\u2019 notice before undertaking construction-related activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The administration has previously argued that a century-old law concerning Arlington Memorial Bridge authorizes the arch. Justice Department lawyers have also challenged the plaintiffs\u2019 standing and called that lawsuit premature, ABC News reported in June.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The project has also drawn objections from Association of Flight Attendants-CWA President Sara Nelson, particularly after Trump announced plans to incorporate military uses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump said in a September social media post that the arch would house drones, provide positions for snipers and store ammunition. He attributed the proposal to a military request; the Pentagon declined to comment when asked by ABC News.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Aviation concerns are disputed. ABC News reported in June that an initial FAA feasibility review found no significant adverse effect on airport airspace or flight procedures, while identifying a need for obstruction lighting and a subsequent full aeronautical study.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">White House Defends The Monument<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The White House continues to champion the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Officials told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fox5dc.com\/news\/arlington-county-files-lawsuit-stop-trumps-triumphal-arch\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">FOX 5 DC<\/a> the arch would become an iconic landmark and improve the experience for veterans, military families and other visitors to Arlington National Cemetery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Interior has also previously defended its review process, telling ABC News in September that it would follow applicable laws and regulations. The department said it had received more than 100,000 public comments and extended comment periods to encourage discussion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now Arlington is asking a federal judge to force a pause \u2014 raising another obstacle to Trump\u2019s effort to reshape Washington\u2019s skyline.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Donald Trump\u2019s push to build a towering triumphal arch near Arlington National Cemetery has hit another legal hurdle \u2014 this time from a neighboring county government.
