About twenty-five US states, mostly led by Democrats, are suing President Trump over his new tariffs. These tariffs add extra costs to imported goods. The states argue Trump is overstepping his authority and that these tariffs hurt families and businesses. One outlet reports the government claims the tariffs are due to concerns about forced labor in supply chains. This is the third time states have sued over similar tariffs. The courts will now decide the legality of these new trade measures.
