Public Citizen, the Natural Resources Defense Council, and the Communications Workers of America File Lawsuit Against Donald J. Trump

Feb 8, 2017:

Public Citizen, the Natural Resources Defense Council, and the Communications Workers of America filed a lawsuit against Donald J. Trump (and other government officials in his administration) in an attempt to block Trump's January 30 executive order which requires that for every new government rule/regulation two existing rules/regulations must be eliminated, and the accompanying "interim guidance" memorandum.

In summary the lawsuit states:

The Executive Order exceeds President Trump's constitutional authority, violates his duty under the Take Care Clause of the Constitution, and directs federal agencies to engage in unlawful actions that will harm countless Americans, including plaintiffs' members.
