Attorney General Frosh Joins Multi-State Lawsuit Challenging President Trump’s Declaration of National Emergency at the Southern Border

Trump’s Fabricated Emergency and Unlawful Diversion of Congressionally Appropriated Funding to Pay for His Border Wall

BALTIMORE, MD (February 18, 2019) –
Maryland Attorney General Brian E. Frosh today joined 15 other states in filing a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California challenging President Trump’s declaration of a national emergency and his attempt to divert funding appropriated by Congress for other purposes. In the complaint, the coalition alleges that the Trump Administration’s emergency declaration and diversion of funds is unconstitutional and otherwise unlawful. The states seek to block the Trump Administration’s emergency declaration, the unauthorized construction of the border wall, and any illegal diversion of Congressionally-appropriated funds.

“There is no justification to declare a national emergency at our southern border,” said Attorney General Frosh. “The basis for President Trump’s declaration is fabricated. It is an illegal power grab and an abuse of executive authority. We are bringing this suit to defend the Constitution.”

Did anyone notice that the only border state to sign on is California, the home of more Liberals than anywhere?

Seems to me, Brian Frosh he was going to make the President give up his tax return. Clean up the waste going in to the inter harbor . Do the jobs in front of you . When you get them done, then go at the President. Then go after the hard working people o f this state, that's what your good at. You are dog crap.

Frosh is attempting to make MD more like California as a protected sanctuary state instead of taking care of our seniors, Vets and children. Why is Hogan allowing this?

He is wrong and the only thing partisan is you and that Piece of Sh!t HACK! His lawsuit has absolutely nothing to do with his job as Maryland's AG. If I could find you I would kick your a$$ just like someone needs to do his!
