25 US States Sue Trump Administration Over Tariffs
States challenge legality of broad Section 301 tariffs.
Event Overview
A coalition of 25 primarily Democratic-led U.S. states has filed a lawsuit in the U.S. Court of International Trade against the Trump administration. The lawsuit challenges tariffs imposed on dozens of trading partners, including the EU and 59 to 60 other countries, under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974. While the administration claims the tariffs combat forced labor, the states argue the move is a pretext to bypass a Supreme Court ruling that struck down previous import taxes.
