25 États démocrates contestent en justice la dernière salve de tarifs de Trump
health / draft
Twenty-five US states, mostly led by Democrats, are suing the federal government over new tariffs imposed by President Trump. They argue the tariffs are illegal, will hurt families and businesses, and represent an abuse of power. The government claims the tariffs are necessary to address issues like forced labor in international supply chains. This is the third time such a challenge has been brought. The states want a court to block the tariffs, which could impact the cost of goods. The legal battle highlights ongoing tensions over trade policy and executive authority.
