As explained yesterday in Voteharder's diary, DHS Secretary Michael Chertoff is
imposing a blanket waiver of environmental and land management laws along 470 miles of the U.S./Mexico border
so the U.S. can move forward with building a fence along portions of the border.
The Defenders of Wildlife and Sierra Club have filed suit to stop the Bush administration from such sweeping disregard of environmental laws. But in the meantime they need our help.
