The nation’s highest court will decide the future of a controversial $1 billion pipeline planned in New Jersey, and set a precedent for pipeline construction across the country.
The U.S. Supreme Court decided Wednesday that it would hear the appeal of the PennEast Pipeline Company, which plans to build a 120-mile natural gas pipeline from Pennsylvania’s Marcellus Shale region, across the Delaware River and into Hunterdon and Mercer counties.
According to a statement from Trump’s office, Alabama lawyer David Schoen and Pennsylvania attorney Bruce L. Castor Jr. will lead President Trump’s impeachment defense in the Senate trial. The two lawyers, according to Trump, will bring “national profiles and significant trial experience in high-profile cases to the effort.”
“The strength of our Constitution is about to be tested like never before in our history,” Castor was quoted as saying in Trump’s statement. “It is strong and resilient. A document written for the ages, and it will triumph over partisanship yet again, and always.”
Schoen is a Jewish Democrat Civil Rights lawyer.
