LOS EBANOS, Texas (AP) – The U.S. government has been trying to take Pamela Rivas’ land for a border wall since before Joe Biden was vice president.

The government wants to bisect this property with steel fencing that would cut her off from the water, paying her just for the strip of land where it would build.
