25 US states throw legal wrench at Trump's tariffs
Twenty-five Democratic-led U.S. states filed a lawsuit against President Donald Trump's administration, challenging his recent tariffs on goods from 60 trading partners, claiming they exceed his legal authority. This lawsuit follows previous legal actions from small businesses against the tariffs, which were imposed on July 24 as a response to alleged forced labor practices. The states, including Oregon and New York, aim to halt the tariffs that have drawn criticism and faced legal setbacks in the past.
