Florida stationery firm sues Trump over China tariffs

April 4 (UPI) — A Florida-based boutique stationery company that sources products from China has sued the Trump administration, challenging the legality of tariffs he imposed on the Asian nation.

The lawsuit, filed Thursday by the conservative New Civil Liberties Alliance on behalf of Simplified, argues President Donald Trump’s use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act to impose tariffs on China is unconstitutional and should be rescinded.
