Judge Blocks White House Ballroom Construction, Allows Underground Work
The federal judge overseeing the White House ballroom construction has issued a revised order, permitting below-ground work and essential security-related above-ground construction. However, the order specifically prevents above-ground construction that would finalize the size and scale of the controversial ballroom. The Trump administration has appealed this decision, while the judge maintains that national security concerns do not justify proceeding with potentially unlawful activity.
