Construction has begun on a new segment of border wall through the San Rafael Valley in Arizona’s Sky Island region 🚨

This biodiversity hotspot includes the most significant wildlife corridor remaining along the Arizona-Mexico border.

The planned 27-mile border wall would block migration for dozens of imperiled species who roam freely between Arizona and the Mexican state of Sonora.

“The Trump administration is gutting our nation’s most fundamental environmental laws and trampling the Constitution to build this terrible border wall,” said Jean Su, a senior attorney at the Center. “It’s a reckless power grab that will permanently scar one of North America’s most biodiverse regions. “We’ll do everything we can to stop this abuse of power and protect the Sky Islands and the wildlife that call it home.”
