The Trump administration had hoped to begin construction immediately after a federal panel approved its arch late Thursday. Overnight, the judge issued an order blocking work for 14 days.
A federal panel approved Donald Trump’s planned arch in Washington late Thursday, according to WBOI, which said the administration hoped to start work immediately. DW reported that the panel’s vote was 8-4 and that a judge then ordered construction stopped for two weeks; BBC News also reported that the judge blocked construction. The reports describe the order as a temporary halt, but do not give the judge’s reasons.
