Abbott’s wall-building scheme, like its fed predecessor -so far proven itself to be a slow-moving, BILLION+$ boondoggle that's produced very little completed wall & plenty of logistical quagmires, delays, & soaring costs, while sparking resistance & resentment among many landowners & local leaders -in the project’s path. Gov Abbott's Billion$ Barrier: Texas' border wall: concerns about wildlife, public thrift, & prop. rights notwithstanding. texasobserver.org/abbotts-bill

As the movement here builds, we are planning ahead for the next phase. The Forest Service has informally told us that they consider this environmental mess an emergency situation and are committed to remediating it as soon as they have the legal go ahead.

Unfortunately, there has already been talk of replacing it with a Trump-era mega wall or other barrier. This is completely unacceptable, ineffective, wasteful, destructive, and completely unnecessary for security.

December 16 Ocelot Camp protest update! We still have a great turn out and support is building. At this point, it looks like we have permanently stopped this phase of construction just by being here ready to blockade.

The next phase will be making sure that this travesty wall is not replaced by another "official" one.

No, Mr Trump, Mexico doesn't have nuclear weapons. Oh wait, for a second, I thought we were in 2001, Trump was Bush, and Mexico was Iraq.
