House Democrat to launch challenge to Trump’s ‘Lake America’ order – US politics live

Debbie Dingell plans to introduce her ‘Hands Off Our Great Lakes Act’ today following president’s latest escalation in US-Canada trade war Canada erects giant ‘Lake Ontario’ sign as spat with Trump over name escalates Sign up for US Breaking News emails Hello and welcome to the US politics live blog. As House representatives return from the summer recess, one Democrat has already set in motion a plan to nullify Donald Trump’s latest conceited executive order.
