America’s Port, a major U.S. seaport under Los Angeles city management
A coalition of 25 US states has filed suit in the US Court of International Trade to stop 10–12.5% tariffs that took effect in July on goods from about 60 trading partners. Plaintiffs say the administration has used forced‑labour claims to recreate broad levies courts have already struck down; the White House says the duties are lawful under Section 301.
The Trump administration has refunded about $100 billion of pre-cut tariff revenue after a Supreme Court ruling invalidated much of the IEEPA-based tariff regime. Refunds are continuing as trade authorities review remaining claims and importers provide banking details, while lawsuits challenge new duties.
