Toy Companies Sue Trump Over Devastating Tariffs
Learning Resources and hand2mind petitioned the Supreme Court to expedite their challenge to President Trump’s tariffs, citing the significant economic impact on businesses and consumers. The companies argue that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) does not grant the president the authority to impose these tariffs. They request a September or October hearing, aiming to circumvent the appeals process currently underway in the D.C. Circuit Court. A lower court previously ruled against the administration, finding IEEPA did not authorize the tariffs, though this ruling was limited in scope. The Supreme Court’s intervention is sought to swiftly address the ongoing substantial financial harm caused by the tariffs.
