Two Democrats in the House want to stop President Trump's plan for a big arch near Arlington National Cemetery. Don Beyer and Dina Titus will introduce a new law. This law would stop the 250-foot arch from being built. The arch looks like the famous Arc de Triomphe in Paris. Trump says he can build it without Congress's permission. However, Democrats do not have enough votes to make this happen.
Beyer lives near Arlington. His family members are buried there. He calls Arlington a sacred place for American heroes. He says Trump's arch is a waste of money and calls it a "vanity project." Trump says the arch is for him. Critics say the arch would block the view of the Lincoln Memorial from the cemetery.
