We are absolutely outraged! Donald Trump has just sent bulldozers into Big Bend National Park in an effort to expand his wall on the Southern Border.
Our SEEC Members in Congress, led by Rep. Lloyd Doggett of Texas, are taking immediate action!
This is absolutely devastating news. This national park is one of America’s greatest treasures and one of the last truly wild places left in Texas. If you’re one of the hundreds of thousands of people who visit every year, you know how special it really is.
But now, Trump is planning to bulldoze hundreds of miles of patrol roads and construct barriers that will damage the desert ecosystem and cut off public access to the Rio Grande — all to hand out another lucrative contract to one of Trump’s billionaire buddies.
No one wants this. Environmentalists don’t want this. Texans don’t want this. Even some of our Border Patrol agents are speaking out against this saying this project is completely unnecessary and won’t make America any safer!
