Trump gives rare kudos to Paul after commission’s White House ballroom vote

The 12-member commission voted 8-1 to advance the project, even as a judge’s order and a preservation lawsuit keep the ballroom plan in court.

  • President Donald Trump praised Kentucky Senator Rand Paul for voting in favor of the White House ballroom project during the National Capital Planning Commission's 8-1 vote approval.
  • The National Capital Planning Commission approved the project despite a federal judge's 35-page ruling halting construction until congressional approval is obtained, and the Trump administration plans to appeal this decision.
  • Rand Paul, generally a critic of Trump, has supported the project and is a cosponsor of the SAVE America Act, which Trump also supports.
