NM to sue Trump over emergency declaration

 Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham and Attorney General Hector Balderas announced today that they will take President Donald Trump to court “over his inappropriate and overreaching” declaration of a national emergency.
Officials in other states, including California, have also said they plan to sue in an effort to block the order.

Both Lujan Grisham and Balderas are blasting the president for the declaration, saying that it would divert funds “crucial to the protection of New Mexicans away from their proper channels and puts New Mexico’s economy and people at risk.”
