Five American small businesses have filed a lawsuit against President Trump’s so-called 'Liberation Day' tariffs, claiming he exceeded his authority by declaring a national emergency. The tariffs, imposed on imports from countries that have a trade surplus with the U.S., are alleged to threaten the viability of these businesses due to unpredictable cost increases. This lawsuit marks the first significant legal challenge to the tariffs, with a court hearing scheduled, as the plaintiffs argue unilateral tariff authority should not reside with one individual.
Our clients have no certainty on what the tariffs are going to be at any point, and that's exactly the problem,
One person shouldn't have unilateral authority to impose tariffs on every country at any rate, at any time that he wants.
