What happened
Two U.S. small businesses, represented by the Liberty Justice CenterLiberty Justice CenterAmerican non-profit public interest law firm, sued the Trump administration Friday to block new tariffs on imports from 60 trading partners. The duties took effect at 12:01 a.m. Friday, range from 10% to 12.5%, and were issued under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974. The administration says the targeted economies failed to prohibit or enforce bans on imports made with forced labor. The complaint argues the policy exceeds Section 301 and follows the Supreme Court’s February ruling striking down Trump’s earlier “Liberation Day” tariffs.
