U.S.-Mexico Border Wall Causes “Significant Damage and Destruction” to Environment and Cultural Sites, New Report Finds

The U.S.-Mexico border wall constructed during former President Donald Trump's administration has caused significant damage and destruction to the environment and cultural sites, according to a new report from the Government Accountability Office. The report outlines the environmental and cultural impacts of the wall, including desecration of Indigenous cultural sites, disruption of wildlife, destruction of vegetation, and erosion of mountain slopes. The report calls for the U.S. government to assess the impacts, develop a plan to address them, and provide resources to help Indigenous communities restore and protect their cultural sites.
