I wired a new room addition to my house. I'm using the 30 amp breaker and 12-2 wire. Every time I turn the power on power comes to the room, but when I flip the light switch it trips the breaker. How come?

You could have a loose wire or a circuit overload. Check this website for more information :www.doityourself.com/
My husband is an electrician. Here is his answer... First your light switch is not wired correctly. Also 12-2 wire is not rated for a 30 amp breaker.
