Trump says the towering arch he wants to be build might be dedicated to military veterans
The project faces a 14-day restraining order as veterans groups and others challenge a monument the website says could cost up to $100 million.
- During a Veterans Day ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery on Wednesday, President Donald Trump promoted his proposed 250-foot United States Military Triumphal Arch, claiming veterans have "been waiting for it for 200 years."
- Following a lawsuit filed by Veterans, District Judge Tanya Chutkan issued a temporary restraining order last week, prohibiting work for 14 days on the project.
- A website unveiled last week describes the monument as "Highly Secretive" and "Lethal," featuring munitions storage and a sniper's nest, with project costs estimated as high as $100 million.
- With Democrats soon taking control of Congress following last week's midterm elections, Trump's renovation projects including the arch, a public golf course, and a White House ballroom face increased scrutiny and potential legislative roadblocks.
- Inspired by the Arc in Paris, the 76-meter monument features the word "Triumph" in gold cursive script, echoing design flourishes added to the West Wing.
