Companies say Biden’s blocking of the proposed purchase over national security concerns violates constitution

The lawsuit asked the court to set aside the review process of the committee on foreign investment in the US and Biden’s order, citing “violation of the constitutional guarantee of due process and statutory procedural requirements, as well as unlawful political influence”.
