24 US states suing to stop Trump’s latest global tariffs
Twenty-four US states, led by Democratic Attorneys General, are suing President Donald Trump's administration over the new 10% global tariffs. The lawsuit argues that these tariffs, imposed under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974, are illegal because they were not intended to address trade deficits and violate a Supreme Court ruling invalidating previous tariffs. They claim the tariffs exceed the law's scope and seek an order to block them and refund any payments already made. The lawsuit comes as Trump faces ongoing legal challenges over his use of tariffs as a foreign policy tool.
