Trump asks Supreme Court to let White House ballroom construction continue
Justice Department lawyers echoed the US president's claim that the $400 million White House ballroom project is a security necessity. The Trump administration on Friday asked the US Supreme Court to allow construction to continue on the president's $400 million White House ballroom. It comes a week after an appeals court ruled Donald Trump's ballroom project, planned for the site of the White House's East Wing after it was demolished, lacked congressional approval and ordered above-ground construction to stop . "This case involves an extraordinary and unlawful injunction that will halt the ongoing construction of the integrated military complex, including a totally secure ballroom space, at the East Wing of the White House, which is vitally required by national security," Trump's Solicitor General D. John Sauer wrote in a petition to the Supreme Court. Chief Justice John Roberts set a deadline of Tuesday for a response by plaintiffs challenging the ballroom project.
