A group of #VietnamWar #veterans, as well as an architectural historian, have sued in federal court to stop its construction. The lawsuit argues that the #arch would require congressional approval under various statutes, including the Commemorative Works Act of 1986, which dictates that a memorial built in the proposed location must be of “pre-eminent historical & lasting significance to the United States.”
