White House ballroom project halted by federal appeals court

A federal appeals court has ordered a halt to the construction of a $400 million ballroom and military complex at the White House. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit ruled 2-1 that the Trump administration lacks the unilateral authority to proceed with the project without explicit Congressional approval.

The ruling specifically blocks above-ground construction of the 90,000-square-foot ballroom. However, the court allowed work to continue on underground security features, including bunkers, medical facilities, and air-raid shelters. The lawsuit was brought by the National Trust for Historic Preservation following the demolition of the White House East Wing.

President Donald Trump has criticized the decision, calling it a “national security threat” and a “national disgrace.” He argued that presidents possess the inherent right to renovate and secure the White House and has announced plans to appeal the ruling to the U.S. Supreme Court. The court has granted a 14-day stay on the injunction to allow for this appeal process.
