California Faces Another Lawsuit Against Trump Administration

SACRAMENTO, CA -- The feud between the Trump administration and California lawmakers continued Monday with federal officials filing a lawsuit against the Golden State. Politico said the latest lawsuit against California by the administration is over land laws.

"The suit, filed in federal court in Sacramento on Monday, contends that the state law is unconstitutional because it interferes with Congress' right to control the sale of federal property," Politico reported.

"California's legislature adopted the law last October at the urging of environmentalists concerned that the Trump administration was readying plans to sell off federal land for real estate development, mining or drilling," the news site said.

This is the second lawsuit the Trump administration has filed against California.

In March, federal leaders filed a lawsuit against the state over its so-called sanctuary laws that protect immigrants.
