President Donald Trump's plan to build a 250-foot arch near Arlington National Cemetery has faced opposition from veterans, Arlington County, the District of Columbia, and nine members of the Kennedy family, who argue that the arch would cast shadows over graves and disrupt the solemn sightline from the eternal flame at President John F. Kennedy's gravesite. The project, which has received approval from oversight boards, has been temporarily blocked by a federal court. The arch, intended to honor veterans, has been criticized for its potential negative impact on the cemetery and the need for congressional approval.
