Armed federal agents prevented Tohono O'odham Nation Police from entering their own sovereign nation to issue citations of trespass to border wall construction crews, who immediately began drilling. This violated a federal judge's order for Homeland Security and Border Patrol to consult and co-ordinate with the tribe before proceeding. Masked and armed federal agents, including the Border Patrol's special ops, took control of the Tohono O'odham Nation's region at the southern border in violation of federal law.

The National Congress of American Indian's resolution opposing the border wall points out the BIA failed in its duty when it sent federal agents to the Tohono O'odham Nation. The resolution lists the federal laws being violated, including laws protecting burial places and eagles. The resolution was passed at NCAI's annual convention last week.
