The U.S. House of Representatives is suing members of President Trump’s administration over his national emergency declaration at the U.S.-Mexico border to divert funds for his signature border wall. WHAT IS A 'NATIONAL EMERGENCY,' AND HOW CAN TRUMP USE IT TO FUND BORDER WALL? The declaration allows Trump to divert extra funds needed to build his long-promised border wall. House Speak Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., announced her intention to sue the administration Thursday, the Politico reported. In March, Congress passed a measure to block Trump’s emergency declaration, prompting him to issue his first veto.
