Summary
A Vietnam War veteran, Paul Romano, and civic activist Susan Douglas have filed a federal lawsuit to stop the UFC event at the White House, citing three grounds of unlawfulness: violation of National Park Service regulations, lack of congressional authorization for the event’s structure, and cost to taxpayers. The event is set to take place on the White House South Lawn and Lincoln Memorial.
