California is filing a federal lawsuit against President Trump's use of emergency powers to impose tariffs, which the state argues unlawfully harm its economy. The lawsuit, announced by Governor Gavin Newsom, claims that these tariffs disproportionately affect California, the largest economy in the U.S., leading to increased prices and threatening jobs. The governor's office argues that the tariffs are causing chaos for families and businesses, prompting legal action to block them. It emphasizes the need to protect Californians from the economic fallout of federal tariffs while also exploring trade deals with other countries.
The lawsuit argues that President Trump lacks the authority to unilaterally impose tariffs through the International Economic Emergency Powers Act, creating immediate and irreparable harm to California.
