Detailed Factual Report
Several members of the Kennedy family have joined the legal battle to prevent President Trump from building a large triumphal arch near Arlington National Cemetery.
In court filings Tuesday , nine members of the famous family — including several children and grandchildren of Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy and Sen. Ted Kennedy — argued the 250-foot-tall arch would block the sightlines of the Kennedy family's gravesites and the "Eternal Flame" commemorating President John F. Kennedy. The three brothers — Robert F. Kennedy, Ted Kennedy and John F. Kennedy — are buried at Arlington.
The family members wrote that the project will "permanently cast a shadow over the graves of servicemen and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for this country, including the Kennedy Gravesites."
The family members are seeking to intervene as plaintiffs in a lawsuit opposing the arch from the city of Washington, D.C., and the Commonwealth of Virginia. Several Vietnam War veterans are also suing the Trump administration over the arch.
