"Regulations: White House Moves To Kill Lawsuit Over 2-For-1 Order"

"The Trump administration yesterday asked a federal court to toss a lawsuit challenging the president's requirement that agencies scrap two regulations for every new one created.

The executive order at issue was a "valid exercise" of President Trump's powers, the government said in a motion to dismiss the suit.

In the motion, the Trump administration argued both that environmental and public interest groups lack legal standing to bring their challenges and that they failed to state a claim that could be addressed by the courts."
