East Wing Modernization?

Remember the East Wing of the White House? Remember the giant ballroom that the tech billionaires agreed to fund in its place? The National Trust for Historic Preservation is making a gallant effort to stop it.

And we can help.

Thanks to the National Trust, we have until March 4th to submit comments about the ballroom to the National Capital Planning Commission. You can make a comment through the link below.

PLEASE NOTE: the project is called East Wing Modernization on the pull down menu.

Anara Guard’s comment below is a beautiful example:
I oppose the spending of $300 million on this project, which was initiated without the proper authorization, permits, or design review. It is not a modernization project but rather a complete razing of American history. I want this project canceled, and the East Wing rebuilt and restored to its former design. No one is above the law and to permit this project to go ahead without penalizing those who broke the law would be an affront to all law-abiding Americans.
