Only very spotty showers are in store for Atlantic coast areas of the Southeast states. Warmth will build over the South Central states as a zone of showers and thunderstorms extends from part of the Lower Peninsula of Michigan to northwestern Texas and eastern New Mexico. A few of the storms over the central and southern Plains can be locally severe. Rain and mountain snow will affect much of the Northwest.

It calls for the U.S. De- partment of Homeland Se- curity to put together a re- port on the environmental impact of construction of the wall and expanded pa- trolling operations on the U.S.-Mexico border. It also asks a judge to find that DHS has violated the National Environmen- tal Policy Act by failing to make an environmental assessment since 2001. DHS said it does not com- ment on pending litiga- tion. The lawsuit was filed in Tucson by the Center for Bi- ological Diversity and U.S. Rep. Raul Grijalva, a south- ern Arizona Democrat. Wildlife conservationists say the wall would be detri- mental to rare animals such as jaguars and ocelots that are known to traverse the international line and are listed as endangered spe- cies. "What we need is a thor- ough analysis and some real science to determine just how much damage has been done and how much more would be done by the pro- posals that are on the table now," said Randy Serraglio of the Center for Biological Diversity. Prior legal challenges to border fencing have been unsuccessful. The South- west border already has roughly 650 miles of fenc- ing in various forms, along with underground sensors and camera towers. The latest lawsuit is broader than others and considers the larger impli- cations of more border pa- trol operations, not just the wall, Serraglio said. Trump has promised to build the wall and make Mexico pay for it, though Mexico has refused. TRUMP POLICY Wi ld li fe c on se rv at io ni st s su e ov er p ro po se d bo rd er w al l By Ken Thomas and Andrew Taylor The Associated Press WASHINGTON Repub- licans escaped a special House election in Kansas with a single-digit victory in a district where they have romped in the past, an early warning sign for the GOP at the start of Donald Trump's presidency. The narrow win in Kan- sas, where CIA Director Mike Pompeo prevailed by 31 percentage points last fall, emboldened Demo- crats ahead of a more com- petitive special congressio- nal election in Georgia next week that could serve as a test of their ability to mar- shal anti-Trump forces. "Democrats are showing up and Republicans have to energize their base," said TomDavis,aformerVirginia congressman who once led the GOP's House campaign arm. "A win is a win but this should have been relatively simple and it wasn't." The special election was the first major contest since Trump's inauguration and could be an early indi- cator of Democrats' abil- ity to mobilize against the president's policies and whether Republican fail- ure to overhaul health care policy might sap party en- thusiasm. Trump's job ap- proval ratings have hovered around 40 percent, creating unease among Republicans looking to maintain their congressional majorities. Republicans have had a difficult stretch, with the health care debacle, federal and congressional probes into Trump campaign con- tacts with Russian officials and contentious town halls in congressional districts. On Monday, Republican Rep. Joe Wilson of South Carolina, who shouted "You Lie!" at President Barack Obama during a 2009 health care speech, heard chants of the same phrase at a town hall from constit- uents angry about health care and his voting record on violence against women. In a tweet, Trump praised Republican Ron Es- tes' "great win" and for "eas- ily winning the Congressio- nal race against the Dems, who spent heavily & pre- dicted victory!" But that was hardly the case. The seven-percentage point margin was closer than initially expected in a district that Trump won handily last November and Republicans have held since 1994. The Democratic can- didate, James Thompson, was a political novice who couldn't attract big-dollar donations from Democrats around the nation. In a sign of concern for Republicans, Thompson edged Estes in the district's most populous county sur- rounding Wichita, a county Trump won by 18 points last November. Wichita is home to Koch Industries, the company led by con- servative billionaire politi- cal donors Charles and Da- vid Koch.
