First, the panel held that California and New Mexico each provided sufficient evidence, if taken as true, that would allow a reasonable fact- finder to conclude that both states would suffer injuries in fact to their environmental interests, and in particular, to protect endangered species within their borders. Second, the panel also held that California and New Mexico demonstrated that border wall construction injured their quasi-sovereign interests by preventing them from enforcing their environmental laws.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cThe Biden administration had argued that the Supreme Court did not need to weigh in on the border wall funding case because the project was closed down by the new administration,\u201d Newsweek&nbsp;noted.<\/p>\n<p>Biden had issued an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/briefing-room\/presidential-actions\/2021\/01\/20\/proclamation-termination-of-emergency-with-respect-to-southern-border-of-united-states-and-redirection-of-funds-diverted-to-border-wall-construction\/\">executive proclamation<\/a> on the day he was inaugurated that stated:<\/p>\n<blockquote readability=\"10\">\n<p><em>\u2026 building a massive wall that spans the entire southern border is not a serious policy solution.&nbsp; It is a waste of money that diverts attention from genuine threats to our homeland security.&nbsp;\u2026 I have determined that the declaration of a national emergency at our southern border in Proclamation 9844 of February 15, 2019 (Declaring a National Emergency Concerning the Southern Border of the United States), was unwarranted.&nbsp; It shall be the policy of my Administration that no more American taxpayer dollars be diverted to construct a border wall.&nbsp;I am also directing a careful review of all resources appropriated or redirected to construct a southern border wall.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Biden added, \u201cThe Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of Homeland Security, in consultation with the Director of the Office of Management and Budget, shall direct the appropriate officials within their respective departments to: (i)&nbsp;pause work on each construction project on the southern border wall, to the extent permitted by law, as soon as possible \u2026 pause immediately the obligation of funds related to construction of the southern border wall, to the extent permitted by law.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn April, the U.S. Department of Defense said it was canceling border wall construction projects that were intended to proceed with funds&nbsp;\u2018originally intended for military missions and projects,\u2019\u201d Newsweek reported.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
