Click to share quote on Twitter: "If you don't hold him accountable on something like this, there's really no limits." “He took the findings of the inquiry and decided they didn’t meet his needs and just reinterpreted them and made stuff up,” Gray said.The other groups involved in the lawsuit are West Coast Environmental Law, Dogwood Initiative, Stand.earth and the Wilderness Committee.

Gray said the case will now enter discovery, in which both sides seek evidence to support their case, often through formal queries and document requests.
