The Donument Act would establish a new national monument along the U.S.-Mexico border, spanning parts of California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas. The primary purpose of this designation is to provide federal protection for the existing southern border wall to prevent it from being altered or dismantled.
Under this bill, the Bureau of Land Management would oversee the monument and coordinate with other federal agencies and Tribal governments to manage the land where the wall is located. For the public, this would mean the border wall structure would be treated as a protected historical or national site, requiring a formal management plan to maintain its current state.
