Twenty protesters withstood freezing temperatures over the weekend to defy the project, which started in August after Ducey issued an executive order directing the state Department of Emergency and Military Affairs to fill gaps in the existing border wall in Yuma County.
The project's $95 million expansion into Cochise County comprises about 3,000 steel containers, The Associated Press reported.
Ducey's office did not respond to multiple requests for comment.
Until last week, when protesters blocked access to the site, work crews stacked hundreds of shipping containers topped with razor wire along Arizona's remote eastern boundary with Mexico.
Demonstrators say they will not leave until the containers are removed, even if it means camping in tents in below-freezing temperatures. Recently, a volunteer bought a Christmas tree for the protest site.

It’s be a shame if a crane accidentally dropped a container on those bastards.
How long does it take for those big forklifts to back over 20 ignorant idiots who won’t pay back their student loans?

There are still those, in this country, who are in favor of an invasion by Mayorkas’ merry migrants.
Aren’t these containers planted on state/
federal rights of way? Have them arrested
for trespassing.
If on state public property, charge the
protestors a $1,000/day camping fee.
Solar powered mega watt loud speakers
blasting out Kenny G 24/7.
Trap and release in the protesters
general vicinity, hundreds of coyotes
and skunks.
The protesters gotta crap. Have them
fined/arrested for polluting pristine
desert environments.
If the state wanted to, they could make
these protesters stay, a pure hell.
The protestors should be buried under the containers or be forced to take 1,000 illegals home with them to feed, house and provide medical care for a minimum of 5 years.

Whose land are they TRESPASSING on ?
Send in a hundred AZ state police arrest and haul them away.
Then bring in the containers and razor wire and close the gap.
Really? Exactly what was wrong with the wall design that Trump approved? I smell TDS....
It would be a better deterrent if there were some arms and legs sticking out from under those shipping containers. On the Mex side, of course.
The only truly effective border wall is made from small lead bullets.
The government encourages and permits the invasion.
Set the containers on the protesters.
I’m surprised “migrants” haven’t set up house in those already. Too far to the welfare office.
Too far to the welfare office.

I suspect it is too far from food & other
needs for them to do that.
Mere criticism of Trump does not mean TDS. And his announcement today was a slap in our faces, by the way.
You obviously know zip about the design aspects of the wall SYSTEM. The physical wall was intended to be backed by automated surveillance and rapid response active enforcement. Unfortunately, due to actions BY THE DEMOCRATS, those aspects were never completed. That is hardly Trump's fault. He did more for border security than any other president to date.
"Mere criticism of Trump does not mean TDS. And his announcement today was a slap in our faces, by the way.
Your comments reek of TDS and media gullibility.
