The New Civil Liberties Alliance (NCLA), a conservative legal group, has filed the first lawsuit challenging Trump’s new tariffs on Chinese imports.

• The suit claims Trump exceeded his legal authority by imposing tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA).

• It was filed in federal court in Florida and targets both the April 2 sweeping tariffs and those from February 1.

• The NCLA argues Trump has misused emergency powers, violated the Constitution’s separation of powers, and overstepped Congress’s authority on tariff policy.

• The lawsuit seeks a court order to block the tariffs’ enforcement and reverse changes to the U.S. tariff schedule.

• The White House has not yet commented on the case.
