President Donald Trump has scored another important legal victory as the Supreme Court allowed construction of his administration’s proposed White House ballroom to continue while the broader legal fight over the project moves forward.
The 5-4 decision temporarily lifted a lower-court ruling that would have stopped above-ground construction. The Supreme Court’s action means work can proceed while the justices consider the legal arguments surrounding the project.
The ruling did not determine whether Trump’s ballroom project ultimately complies with federal law.
