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."
