There have been desecrations. There has been blasting. There have been artifacts. There have been remains that have been ruined and forever lost.
The Nation is deeply appreciative of the attention that this subcommittee is paying to the serious issues that surround the frighteningly broad authority that the Secretary of Homeland Security has been given.
We are also deeply concerned about the authority that allows Homeland Security to waive all statutory protections in the name of expediting border wall construction.
We have raised these concerns numerous times, numerous times to Federal folks on the impacts that this border wall will have on our people.
