Judge allows White House ballroom project to proceed
A judge says President Trump’s White House ballroom project can move forward for now. A federal judge has rejected a preservationist group’s request to block the Trump administration from continuing construction of a 400 million dollar ballroom. The group had sought an order pausing the ballroom project until it undergoes multiple independent reviews and wins approval from Congress. On social media, President Trump hailed the ruling as “great news.” Last year the White House East Wing was demolished to make room for the ballroom.
