Trump administration appeals 2nd ruling blocking tariffs

The Trump administration requested a federal appeals court to block a ruling that deemed President Trump’s tariffs unlawful, arguing that the decision disrupts ongoing trade negotiations. This follows a lawsuit from two toy companies, where U.S. District Judge Rudolph Contreras ruled Trump lacks authority to unilaterally impose tariffs. The administration contends that the ruling undermines the President’s negotiating power and jurisdiction over trade policy, which should reside in the Court of International Trade.
