House Dems to sue to block Trump's border wall
Politico, Apr 4, 2019

"The House will once again defend our Democracy and our Constitution, this time in the courts," Pelosi wrote in a statement.
The House will take the rare legal step against the White House after unsuccessfully attempting to block the effort via legislation.
