Philadelphia asks appeals court for rare review of President’s House ruling
Philadelphia seeks a federal appeals court review of a ruling that allowed the Trump administration to remove exhibits highlighting George Washington's role as an enslaver at the President’s House Site. The city argues the decision creates a loophole for federal agencies to bypass judicial review under the Administrative Procedure Act. The National Park Service has since replaced the exhibit with a version critics say downplays Washington's enslavement of nine people.
