25 states sue over Trump's latest tariffs, calling them pretext for replacing levies Supreme Court struck down

Twenty-five Democratic-led US states sued the Trump administration on Monday, challenging new global tariffs. These states claim the surcharges, which range from 10 percent and target 59 countries and the European Union, are a pretext to replace levies previously struck down by the Supreme Court. The lawsuit follows recent legal challenges from small businesses. The tariffs were implemented last month, citing a failure by these nations to sufficiently crack down on imports produced by forced labor.
