Federal Judge Orders Private Land on Border Can Be Taken for Wall
A family thought the Biden administration would halt seizure of their border land, but a court still ruled the government could take it.

Judge Micaela Alvarez of the Texas Southern District Court ruled the federal government can take “immediate possession” of a Texas family’s land along the southern border. The Trump administration began trying to claim the Cavazos family’s land years ago, leading them to fight to keep their land that’s been passed down for generations. “We’re hardworking Hispanic landowners. To my family, you can offer whatever, it’s more important for them to save their land,” said Baudilla “Lily” Cavazos Rodriquez. The government is typically allowed to take private land for public use. Cavazos Rodriguez thought the case would be dropped when Biden took office and terminated wall construction. CNN
