A coalition of 24 U.S. states has initiated legal proceedings against the Trump administration, challenging the newly implemented 10 percent global tariffs. The states, led by Democratic administrations, contend that these tariffs contradict a recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling, which invalidated many of the president's prior tariffs on imports.

The lawsuit was filed on Thursday, asserting that the tariffs, announced immediately following the Supreme Court's decision on Fri, Feb 20, 2026, are illegal. The states argue that the president is misapplying Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974, which permits the imposition of tariffs up to 15 percent for short-term monetary emergencies, not for addressing routine trade deficits. These measures are limited to a five-month duration unless extended by Congress.

Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield has stated that the tariffs are an attempt to circumvent Congressional authority, as mandated by the U.S. Constitution. The lawsuit was filed in the U.S. Court of International Trade, based in New York.

A White House spokesperson, Kush Desai, has affirmed that the administration will defend the president's actions, stating they are aimed at addressing significant balance-of-payments deficits. The executive order from Feb 20 imposed a 10 percent tariff on imports, with potential increases to 15 percent anticipated.

Previous Court Decisions and Current Litigation

The Supreme Court previously ruled against the tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), determining that the act did not grant the president the authority claimed. This ruling has led to numerous lawsuits from businesses seeking refunds for over $130 billion in IEEPA tariff payments. The court has ordered U.S. Customs to commence processing these refunds.
