Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts on Friday temporarily allowed President Donald Trump 's $400 million White House ballroom project to move forward while the justices consider an emergency appeal from the administration.

Preservation groups challenging the project contend Trump lacks unilateral authority to undertake the overhaul and accuse the White House of racing ahead before courts can intervene.
