Liberal groups sued President Trump on Wednesday over his "two-for-one" executive order issued last week that requires agencies to kill two existing regulations for every new rule they want to institute.
The environmental and advocacy groups the Natural Resources Defense Council, Communication Workers of America and Public Citizen argue that the Trump order is unconstitutional, "irrational" and seeks to scuttle programs meant to protect the public.
"President Trump's order would deny Americans the basic protections they rightly expect," said Rhea Suh, president of the Natural Resources Defense Council. "New efforts to stop pollution don't automatically make old ones unnecessary."
Suh poked at Trump's lack of seriousness in addressing policy, saying "when you make policy by tweet, it yields irrational rules."

The good news is that President Trump has thousands of lawyers available to thwart all these frivolous lawsuits.
Their objective it to make the US Government unmanageable and ungovernable. Every thing Trump does will be taken to court, and they will find a liberal judge to get an injunction. The Left will continually throw tantrums and rocks until the government is at a standstill, none of the cabinet appointees get approved, the departments will all be in revolt and the the people of the US will be in a panic.........................
Time to pass tort reform. File a frivolous lawsuit and get stuck with the lawyer bills.
Said Tacitus “Corruptissima republica plurimae leges”.
(The more corrupt the state, the more numerous the laws)
President Trump is acting like a President, and apparently that is an impeachable offense.
This will go nowhere. Next they will sue him if he vetoes a bill and the 9th Circus will order him to sign it.
He should have gone for a 10 to 1.
Are they going to sue over each and every one of his Executive Orders? They can do that?
I surely hope you are right.
