FILED OPINION (SIDNEY R. THOMAS, KIM MCLANE WARDLAW and DANIEL P. COLLINS) We affirm the judgment of the district court. We hold that the States and Sierra Club both have Article III standing and a cause of action to challenge the Federal Defendantsâ?? border wall construction projects, that Section 2808 did not authorize the challenged construction, and that the district court did not abuse its discretion in either granting a permanent injunction to Sierra Club or in denying a separate permanent injunction to the States. AFFIRMED. Judge: SRT Authoring, Judge: DPC Dissenting. FILED AND ENTERED JUDGMENT. [11855020] [19-17501, 19-17502, 20-15044] |
