doze US They will ask a federal court on Wednesday (21) Suspending the prices announced by US President Donald TrumpOn April 2, on the pretext that he violated his authority to declare a state of national emergency to impose imports on imports.
A committee of three judges from the Manhattan International Commercial Court will hear the headquarters of the argument in a lawsuit filed by Democratic lawyers in New York, Ilinoi, Oregon and nine other states.
They claim that the Republican President has sought a “empty check” to regulate trade “for his will.”
The states claim that Trump has mistakenly interpreted legislation called the Economic Forces of International Emergency to justify definitions. The law was created to deal with unusual and unusual threats to the United States.
Trump stated that the history of the United States in importing more than export is a national emergency that has harmed American manufacturers. But the countries argue that the country’s trade deficit is not a “state of emergency” and that the law does not allow rates at all.
The same committee heard three arguments last week in a similar case submitted by five small companies, and it is expected to issue a decision in the coming weeks.
Oregon Dan Rivild’s public prosecutor said that the increasing prices for families and small companies in their mandate, and the medium family will cost $ 3800 a year.
“President Trump imposed its prices without Congress, without the participation of the population or without restrictions – and claiming that the courts cannot review their decisions,” Rivild said.
“This is the misuse of emergency powers.”
The Ministry of Justice said that the issue of the state should be rejected because they only claimed “speculative economic losses” instead of the concrete damage caused by the definitions.
He also argued that Congress only, not states or courts, may contradict a state of national emergency announced by the president.
A spokesman said that the administration “will continue to defend President Trump’s agenda strongly to confront unfair commercial practices in the courts.”
After imposing prices on China, Mexico and Canada in February, Trump imposed a 10 % general average on all imports in April, with the high rates of the United States with the highest commercial deficit, especially China.
Many of these specified rates for each country were suspended after a week, and the Trump government said temporarily from the highest rates in China this month, while working on a long -term trade agreement.
The state process is one of at least seven judicial competitions for Trump’s tariff policies. California presented a separate competition in the San Francisco Federal Court, and other procedures were submitted by companies, legal defense groups and others.
The decisions of the court, the judges that involve international trade and customs laws, can be resumed to the American Court of Appeal of the Federal Department in Washington, DC, and ultimately, to the Supreme Court.
