Groups Reject Order to Drop Ballroom Lawsuit

Trump wants to build a $400 million ballroom at the White House. The National Trust sued to stop the plan.

The Department of Justice told the National Trust to drop the lawsuit. But the National Trust said no and kept going with the case.

A second group also sued over the ballroom. The Department of Justice told that group to drop its case too.

That group also said no. Senator Lindsey Graham plans to introduce a new law to approve the ballroom. If that law passes it could make both lawsuits pointless.

Klear Note The White House is the president's official home and workplace. Building major changes there usually needs approval from Congress and courts.
