Work crews have steadily erected hundreds of double-stacked shipping containers topped by razor wire along Arizona’s boundary with Mexico in a bold show of border enforcement by Republican Gov. Doug Ducey.

Democratic Gov.-elect Katie Hobbs said last week she was "looking at all the options" and hasn’t decided what to do about the containers after her Jan. 5. inauguration. She previously suggested the containers be repurposed as affordable housing, an increasingly popular option for homeless and low-income people.

"Arizona is going to do the job that Joe Biden refuses to do — secure the border in any way we can." Ducey said whenLawsuit filed by Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey over shipping containers at border wall Ducey’s move comes amid a record flow of migrants arriving at the border. U.S. border officials have stopped migrantsin the fiscal year that ended Sept. 30, up 37% from the year before. The annual total surpassed 2 million for the first time in August and is more than twice the highest level during Trump’s presidency, in 2019.

Still, yawning gaps remain in the new container wall, including an open space of several hundred yards on terrain far too steep to place the containers. In some low-lying wash areas there are gaps nearly three feet wide. The Center for Biological Diversity has sided with the federal government’s position that the construction violates U.S. law.

Yep, what a disaster the Southern Border is and the new governor wants to turn shipping containers into housing. What a nightmare the next 4 yrs will be with her

Well done DougDucey the appreciation goes to you for continuing the fight.

Crooked Hobbs who was involved in a conflict of interest, put non-functional ballot printers at 80 Maricopa county election sites and was too scared to debate Kari Lake will take them down unless the courts stand up and admit the elections were crooked and we revote.

Great idea! Keep out borders closed for illegal entrance!

fill them with boulders so they can’t be easily moved

A costly bit of political theatre. So Ducey.

Why bother...The crazy is about to be unleashed when the looney tune left takes over.

What about the tunnels and shipping containers coming across the border?

Good for doug

Well, if metal scrap from them sells as well as that from Trump’s wall did after they cut it up and sold it, local Mexicans will have a lucrative year.

Arizona Gov. Ducey stacks containers on border at term's endWork crews are stacking hundreds of shipping containers along the east end of Arizona’s boundary with Mexico as Republican Gov. Doug Ducey makes a bold show of border enforcement even as he prepares to step aside for Democratic Governor-elect Katie Hobbs. Arizona voted to flush Ducey Until protesters slowed, then largely halted the work in recent days, Ducey pressed forward despite the objections of the U.S. government, environmentalists and Hobbs, who has suggested repurposing the containers for affordable housing. Obviously by 'bold' you mean 'stupid.'
