Environmentalists failed to fool court on issue of U.S.-Mexico border fence

The U.S. Supreme Court knocked down an effort Monday by environmentalist groups trying to stop construction of the 670-mile fence along the U.S.-Mexico border.
Approximately 330 miles of fencing have been completed as of this month as the U.S. moves to curb illegal immigration and help slow the flow of drugs into this country
The high court’s rejection of the plea centered on a 2-mile stretch of real estate in the San Pedro Riparian National Conservation Area near Naco, Ariz.
A staff lawyer for the Defenders of Wildlife reacted to the court’s ruling, saying that, “It does send a surprising and disturbing message that the broadest waiver in American history, unprecedented in its scope, is not worthy of the court’s consideration. The only thing that can stop the construction of this very destructive border wall is Congress.â€Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)
