U.S. Supreme Court Denies Fast-Track Challenge to Trump Tariffs by Toy Companies
The U.S. Supreme Court rejected an expedited appeal from two toy manufacturers seeking to overturn Trump-era tariffs, ensuring the administration retains its full 30-day response window. Learning Resources and hand2mind, both family-owned businesses, argued the tariffs—imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act—lack legal justification and are crippling operations nationwide.
"The tariffs' sweeping impact on businesses and consumers demands immediate judicial review," the companies stated in court filings. Rick Woldenberg, CEO of the plaintiffs, called the decision "a disappointment but just another twist in the road," acknowledging the protracted legal battle ahead. The case now proceeds through standard appellate channels.
