US Entrepreneurs Challenge Trump's Tariffs in Court - NYT.

US President Donald Trump is facing a wave of lawsuits over the contentious nature of his authority regarding the imposition of tariffs without Congressional approval. Lawsuits are coming in from across the country a month after the onset of a global trade war. Democratic attorneys general from several states have sought to block Trump's tariffs, while California has filed a separate lawsuit. The dispute centers around

the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, which critics argue does not authorize tariff imposition.

Notably, large business lobbying groups have refrained from lawsuits, hoping for a peaceful resolution to the situation. Small businesses and political groups that have already felt a significant financial blow from the tariffs are prepared to sue Trump. These lawsuits also serve as a test of the limits of presidential power, as they may determine whether the president has the authority to impose such tariffs.
