Vietnam vets sue, say 'Arc de Trump' would dishonor their service
Three Vietnam War veterans are suing the Trump administration in an effort to scrap President Donald Trump’s plans to build a 250-foot triumphal arch in Washington, D.C., for the nation’s milestone birthday.
The veterans, along with an architectural historian, argued that the arch would disrupt the historically significant sightline between the Lincoln Memorial and the Arlington National Cemetery. The administration, they said, can’t move forward with plans to build the arch by July 4 without securing approval from Congress.
The federal lawsuit, filed this week on behalf of the plaintiffs by the government watchdog organization Public Citizen, seeks to stop the project until the administration secures approval from Congress and a slate of federal review panels.
