Despite the pandemic, border wall construction persists. Crews are blasting mountains, destroying ancient cacti, sacred sites, and draining springs. These walls disrupt wildlife migrations and harm communities.

Over 650 miles of barriers already exist, cutting through sensitive ecosystems, disrupting animal migration, causing catastrophic flooding, and dividing communities and tribal nations. This unfolding tragedy impacts the region's diverse wildlife, people, and spectacular landscapes.

We are actively fighting this attack in courts, Congress, and communities. This presentation features the Center's Laiken Jordahl, borderlands campaigner, and Randy Serraglio, Southwest advocate.
