California to file tariff lawsuit against Pres. Trump

California Gov. Gavin Newsom announced Wednesday he is suing President Donald Trump over his sweeping tariffs. The lawsuit argues that Trump?s use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act to impose hefty tariffs on Mexico, Canada and China, and a 10% tariff on all imports, is unlawful. Here is what Newsom had to say: ?President Trump?s unlawful tariffs are wreaking chaos on California families, businesses, and our economy ? driving up prices and threatening jobs,? Newsom said in a statement. ?We?re standing up for American families who can?t afford to let the chaos continue.?
