> Arlington County, Virginia, has sued to stop the Trump administration’s planned 250-foot Triumphal Arch. The county argues that the project violates environmental laws and that the National Park Service failed to properly assess its impacts. It also says construction could disrupt traffic and emergency transport and increase noise and air pollution.
