Court filings show that 25 U.S. states have filed a lawsuit against the federal government over its latest tariff measures. New York’s attorney general said the states, led by Democrats, argue that the president exceeded statutory authority to tax imports by imposing a new round of tariffs on goods from 60 trading partners. The complaint also says the new tariffs were introduced as a replacement for tariff measures previously struck down by the U.S. Supreme Court. According to the attorney general, the scope of the latest tariffs is unlawfully broad and bypasses legally required country-specific investigative procedures. The update was cited by Odaily, which referenced China Central Television.
