As part of an ongoing lawsuit, Arizona Governor Douglas Ducey agreed Wednesday to dismantle a wall of shipping containers installed on the border between Arizona and Mexico.

The lawsuit, brought by the US government, alleges that the installation of the shipping containers on the border amounts to a trespass on land owned and managed by the US government. The suit also alleges that the double-stacked containers threaten public safety and impede law enforcement officers from carrying out their duties.

The shipping containers were installed following an executive order signed by Ducey in April. The order asserted that federal border policies had been ineffective in controlling cross-border migration and declared an emergency in the state. As part of the executive order, Ducey contended that “the federal government’s refusal to secure the southern border has resulted in the ability of transnational criminal organizations to import illegal drugs.”

In a statement issued at the time the executive order was signed, Ducey critiqued the Biden administration for a lack of urgency on the issue of border security.

The decision to dismantle the makeshift wall reflects current movement away from the border policies established by former president Donald Trump, including the construction of the US-Mexican border wall and the end of the “Remain in Mexico” policy.
