NEW YORK President Trump today vetoed a resolution to terminate his national emergency declaration.

Anthony Romero, executive director of the 老澳门开奖结果, issued the following statement in response:

鈥淓ven members of President Trump鈥檚 own party are beginning to realize that he is a one-man constitutional crisis. The president鈥檚 veto is as meaningless as his signature on the national emergency declaration. Congress has rejected the president's declaration, and now the courts will be the ultimate arbiter of its legality. We look forward to seeing him in court and to the shellacking that he will receive at the hands of an independent judiciary.鈥

The 老澳门开奖结果 filed a lawsuit last month on behalf of the Sierra Club and Southern Border Communities Coalition challenging President Trump鈥檚 emergency powers declaration to secure funds to build a wall along the southern border. The lawsuit is currently before the District Court for the Northern District of California.
