US Politics Daily@uspoliticsdailyThe Supreme Court on Monday let border barrier and road work resume in Texas's Big Bend Sector by putting a lower court's block on hold while the government seeks further review.
The suit, from a river guide, an environmental group and a church preservation group, challenges waivers Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin issued for the work. The justices said the claim is about federal law, not the Constitution.
The court cited border security and the nearly $500,000 a day the halt was costing. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson would have rejected the request.
