The CenterForBioDiv announced intentions to join the federal government in a fight that could determine whether AZ Gov. Ducey's administration has authority to continue its shipping container borderwall construction. Details
TUCSON, Ariz. — On Monday, Oct. 24, Governor Doug Ducey announced his administration's intention to continue 'filling gaps' along the U.S.-Mexico border with shipping containers, this time in Cochise County.
This week, on Wednesday, Nov. 2, the Tucson-based Center for Biological Diversity announced its intentions to join the federal government in a fight that should determine whether the Ducey administration possesses the authority to continue construction, and whether the containers can continue to stand.
“Ducey’s breaking the law and jeopardizing the spectacular animals that roam the borderlands, just to score political points,” said Robin Silver, a co-founder of the Center. — Center for Biological Diversity November 3, 2022 The Center filed a motion at the U.S. District Court in Tucson to get added as defendants in Ducey's lawsuit. In the motion, the Center says it will add “a unique and unrepresented perspective concerning the endangered wildlife, critical habitat, and general environment of the border lands.”
The region is considered a biological hot spot by environmental scientists and ecologists, critical for wildlife of all kinds, endangered and not.As the wall continues to expand, and as the lawsuit plays out, priorities relating to border security and ecological health will likely take center stage.
