周四,24个州起诉特朗普政府,指控总统特朗普在最高法院2月推翻其去年实施的紧急进口关税后,超出权力范围实施了新的全球关税。
该诉讼围绕特朗普政府最近根据1974年《贸易法》第122条实施的10%关税展开。特朗普后来表示将把关税提高到15%。各州辩称,这些关税违反了宪法的分权原则。
最高法院上月以6-3的裁决裁定,特朗普无权根据1977年《国际紧急经济权力法》(IEEPA)征收关税。
各州在诉讼中称:”与他非法使用IEEPA一样,总统再次行使了他无权行使的关税权力——涉及一项并未授权他所征收关税的法规——以颠覆宪法秩序并给全球经济带来混乱。”
特朗普政府官员表示,提高进口关税将恢复全球贸易公平,刺激美国国内投资并增加政府收入。数据显示,2025年美国海关征收的关税、税费和费用达2870亿美元,较上年增长192%。
严峻的法律失利
该诉讼要求美国国际贸易法院裁定第122条关税非法,并命令美国政府向各州退还关税实施期间产生的任何费用。
自最高法院裁定其IEEPA关税违宪以来,这起诉讼加剧了针对特朗普政府关税政策的反对声浪。周三,美国国际贸易法院一名法官裁定,已缴纳IEEPA关税的企业有权获得退款。此外,联邦上诉法院周一拒绝推迟最高法院关于IEEPA裁决的执行。
贸易专家估计,美国政府可能欠已缴纳IEEPA关税的企业高达1750亿美元。

24 states sue Trump administration over tariffs imposed after Supreme Court ruling

Two dozen states sued the Trump administration on Thursday, alleging that President Trump exceeded his authority in imposing new global tariffs after the Supreme Court in February struck down emergency import duties he introduced last year.
The lawsuit centers on 10% tariffs the Trump administration recently implemented under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974. Mr. Trump later said he would raise the tariffs to 15%. The states argue that the tariffs violate the Constitution’s separation of powers principle.
In a 6-3 decision last month, the Supreme Court ruled that Mr. Trump did not have the right to impose tariffs under the 1977 International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA).
“As with his unlawful use of IEEPA, the president has once again exercised tariff authority that he does not have — involving a statute that does not authorize the tariffs he has imposed — to upend the constitutional order and bring chaos to the global economy,” the states said in the suit.
Trump administration officials have said that raising tariffs on imports will restore fairness to global trade, spur investment in the U.S. and generate government revenue. Data shows the U.S. collected $287 billion in customs duties, taxes and fees in 2025, up 192% from the previous year.
Stinging legal defeats
The lawsuit asks the U.S. Court of International Trade to rule that Section 122 tariffs are illegal and to order the U.S. government to refund states for any costs while the tariffs were in effect.
The litigation also intensifies the pushback against the Trump administration over its tariff policies since the high court’s ruling striking down its IEEPA levies. A Court of International Trade judge ruled on Wednesday that businesses that paid IEEPA tariffs are entitled to refunds. Separately, a federal appeals court on Monday declined to delay implementation of the Supreme Court ruling on IEEPA.
Trade experts estimate that the U.S. government could owe as much as $175 billion to businesses that paid IEEPA levies.
