The National Trust for Historic Preservation filed a federal lawsuit on December 12 seeking to halt construction of President Donald Trump's White House ballroom project, alleging the administration violated multiple federal statutes by demolishing the East Wing without required reviews.

The lawsuit argues that the administration failed to submit construction plans to the National Capital Planning Commission and the Commission of Fine Arts before demolition began, and did not conduct environmental assessments as required by the National Environmental Policy Act.

The White House maintains that President Trump has full legal authority to modernize and renovate the White House, similar to his predecessors, and that the privately funded project does not require the reviews claimed by preservationists before demolition activities.

The ballroom project is expected to cost approximately $300 million and span 90,000 square feet, with funding coming from private donors including major corporations such as Meta, Microsoft, Amazon, Lockheed Martin and Palantir Technologies, according to administration disclosures.
