A federal judge on Tuesday halted construction on President Trump’s White House ballroom project.
U.S. District Judge Richard Leon said that no statute “comes close” to granting Trump the authority he claims he has to execute the $400 million project, barring construction from continuing until Congress authorizes its completion.
“The President of the United States is the steward of the White House for future generations of First Families,” Leon wrote. “He is not, however, the owner!”
The Trump administration has appealed the decision.
