A coalition of 12 states, led by New York Attorney General Letitia James, has filed a lawsuit in the U.S. Court of International Trade against President Trump, claiming his tariffs are an illegal tax on Americans. The complaint argues that Trump lacks the statutory power under the 1977 International Emergency Economic Powers Act to impose a 10 percent tariff on all imports and rates exceeding 145% on certain Chinese products. The tariffs have caused businesses and consumers to pay more for everyday goods, disrupting the constitutional order and bringing chaos to the American economy. The states involved in the lawsuit are Arizona, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Maine, Minnesota, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, and Vermont.
