Landowners and business owners live in Texas.
Their area is called Big Bend.
They are suing the government.
They want to stop the border wall.
A group is called Conserve Big Bend.
Six landowners joined the lawsuit.
Many other people along the border support them.
The government will spend $46 billion.
This money is for walls and technology.
The southern border is about 2,000 miles long.
In Texas, many people do not like the wall.
Sheriffs and officials do not like it.
Tour guides and environmental groups do not like it.
Landowners do not like it.
David Keller is an archaeologist.
He is also a historian.
He lives in the region.
He said officials did not expect this opposition.
He said Big Bend is not empty.
It is their home.
The government waived some rules.
These rules protect the environment.
They protect old sites and wildlife.
The government said there is an urgent need.
It said these areas have "high illegal entry."
The plaintiffs say this is wrong for Big Bend.
They cite government numbers.
The region has about 500 miles of border.
That is about one quarter of the total.
But only about 1% of arrests happen there.
Laura Allen voted for Trump two times.
She was a county judge.
Her family ranch would be cut by the wall.
She said arrests have dropped more.
This happened after Trump returned to office.
She thanked Trump for securing the border.
She said it was time to let it go.
The plaintiffs say Homeland Security is misusing its power.
Congress gave it this power to waive rules.
This lawsuit is the latest effort.
It aims to slow the government's plans in Texas and other places.
