Trump Appeals to Supreme Court Over White House Ballroom Construction
The Trump administration has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to allow construction of a $400 million White House ballroom to continue. A lower court had ordered a halt to above-ground work, ruling it lacked necessary congressional approval. The administration argues that halting construction would leave President Trump "much less safe" and that the project is vital for national security. They contend that an unfinished structure is preferable to a completed ballroom.
