California filed a lawsuit on Wednesday (16) to prevent the comprehensive definitions imposed by US President Donald Trump about foreign business partners, accusing Trump of offending the treatment of his powers and causing financial damage to the country and the population.
Trump imposed a 10 % tariff on goods from all countries and higher rates for countries that, according to the government, have great obstacles to imports from the United States – most of which were hung later for 90 days.
Trump also imposed a Average 145 % over ChinaCom Exceptions for some products Electronics.
A China took revenge on a fee 125 % against the United States, and the European Union has agreed to revenge rates, although it is currently hanging.
In its work, the California government said: “The United States’ constitution gives Congress the authority to impose definitions, and the law does not allow Trump as an authority for its new definitions, the International Economic Forces Law (IEPA), to the president” imposing taxes on all products that enter the United States in a whim. “
“Hey A new tariff system President Trump has already had devastating effects on the economy, creating chaos on stock markets and securities, eliminating hundreds of billions of dollars from the market value at times, cooling investment in facing such a presidential procedure without notice or process, and threatening to push the country to recession. “
California, the fifth largest economy in the world, if the American states are compared to other countries, and the largest importer of the American states, “holds a turbulent part” of customs tariff costs, according to the lawsuit.
Definitions can damage 12 ports in California, which receives 40 % of imported goods to the United States and provides stable tax revenues for the state.
In addition, it can hurt the reprisals in China and other countries Agricultural exports in CaliforniaThe total of $ 23.6 billion in 2022, which may cost thousands of jobs, according to the operation.
White House spokesman Kush Disai said on Wednesday that California Governor Gavin New Tuiri should focus on crime control, lack of housing and high prices in his mandate, rather than trying to prevent Trump prices.
“The entire Trump government is still committed to dealing with this national emergency destroying American industries and leaving our workers behind all the tools available to us, from the customs tariff to negotiations,” said Desai.
In the decrees that imposed definitions, Trump protested the laws, including IEPA, which gives presidents special powers to combat unusual or unusual threats to the United States.
The President said that the US trade deficit for the United States over the rest of the world is a state of national emergency that endangers its production capacity and makes it It depends on foreign opponents.
In the case on Wednesday, he asked the San Francisco court, and he asked New Zom and California lawyer, Rob Ponta, from Democrats, that the judge prevented the Ministry of Interior Security, Customs Protection and Borders from the implementation of definitions.
The Trump government has already faces three similar lawsuits: one in the International Commerce Court in New York, submitted by the defense group of the Justice Center at the Justice Center, which seeks to prevent all definitions; One in Florida Federal Court, led by a small businessman who seeks to prevent customs tariffs around China; The third was moved in Montana by Blackfeet Nation members, an original American community that includes the Canadian province of Montana and Alberta, which opposes Trump’s tariff for Canada.
