15 US states sue over Trump's executive order to fast-track fossil fuel projects

Washington, May 10 (UNI) A coalition of 15 U.S. states is filing a new lawsuit challenging President Donald Trump's executive order declaring a "national energy emergency," which aims to accelerate fossil fuel development.
Washington State Attorney General Nick Brown announced the legal action Friday during a press briefing. The 61-page complaint was submitted to the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington.
According to the lawsuit, Trump's order violates the National Emergencies Act of 1976, which was designed to ensure that presidents use their emergency powers "only when actual emergencies exist" and not for "frivolous or partisan matters."
