THE BARE STORY
Nine members of the Kennedy family filed a motion Tuesday to join ongoing litigation seeking to block President Donald Trump’s proposed 250-foot memorial arch near Arlington National Cemetery.
U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan last week issued a 14-day temporary restraining order halting construction. The proposed monument was approved by a federal planning commission, according to the court-related accounts.
The Kennedy relatives’ filing argues that the project would violate laws and congressional procedures. They also contend that the structure would disrupt sightlines and cast shadows over nearby graves, including those of members of the Kennedy family and veterans buried at Arlington National Cemetery.
White House spokesman Davis Ingle said the administration was disappointed by the family’s participation in the case. He said the arch is intended to honor those buried at Arlington and mark 250 years of American history, and said the administration expects to prevail in court.
