“Nine members of the Kennedy family asked a federal judge Tuesday to halt President Donald Trump’s planned memorial arch, saying the 250-foot monument would cast a shadow over relatives’ burial plots at Arlington National Cemetery. The monument’s shadow would ‘fundamentally alter the experience of visiting the gravesites,’ according to court filings submitted by the relatives. They moved to intervene in a pair of pending lawsuits aimed at stopping the arch’s construction. U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan issued an order last week barring the Trump administration from beginning site work for 14 days. The nine plaintiffs represent descendants of Robert F. Kennedy and Edward M. Kennedy, both former U.S. senators and brothers of assassinated President John F. Kennedy. Their plots are near the eternal flame marking JFK’s resting place.” (11/11/26)
