Kennedy family members ask a judge to block Trump’s Arlington memorial arch

Nine members of the Kennedy family asked a federal judge Tuesday to block President Donald Trump’s plan to build a 250-foot memorial arch at Arlington National Cemetery. They say the structure would cast a shadow over the graves of Robert F. Kennedy and Edward M. Kennedy and alter visits to the nearby John F. Kennedy memorial. The relatives joined two existing lawsuits; a judge has already barred construction from starting for 14 days.
