Legal Battle Grows: 25 States Sue Trump's New Tariffs
· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
Twenty-five U.S. states have filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration over recently imposed tariffs, claiming they are a pretext to replace tariffs invalidated by the Supreme Court in February. Last month, Trump implemented double-digit tariffs on 59 countries and the European Union, arguing they failed to combat imports produced with forced labor. The new tariffs took effect as temporary tariffs expired. New York Attorney General Letitia James criticized the move, stating it unfairly burdens families and businesses. The states involved include California, Arizona, and Illinois, among others, challenging the legality of these tariffs under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974.
