Environmental groups sue the White House over climate change information on government websites

Environmental groups are taking the Trump White House to court, claiming the Administration took down government web pages dedicated to environmental justice and climate change.

Groups, including the Sierra Club, have listed agencies like the EPA, the Department of Transportation, and FEMA in their lawsuit. They say those agencies and others have removed key sources of information for topics like climate change.

The Sierra Club argues the pages in question are critical for small communities, and they are asking the courts to order the government to backtrack.
