The reporting

A neutral summary of the key facts most outlets agree on, drawn from reporting across the political spectrum.

Twenty-five Democratic-led states sued the Trump administration Monday in the U.S. Court of International Trade, challenging President Donald Trump’s latest tariffs on goods from 60 trading partners. Imposed last month under Section 301, the levies charge 10% or 12.5% on most goods from affected economies, including the European Union, over alleged failures to curb forced-labor imports. The states say the tariffs exceed presidential authority and substitute for duties the Supreme Court struck down in February, and they asked the court to block them and order refunds.
