President Donald Trump’s “Great American State Fair” to mark the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States has been hit by several states declining to take part.
Each of the 50 states and territories will be represented by their own pavilion at the giant fairgrounds being erected on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., as part of the semiquincentennial festivities, with each one offering an experience relevant to the culture and traditions of that state.
