Lawsuit filed by 25 states
A coalition of 25 Democratic‑led states files a lawsuit in the US Court of International Trade, challenging the legality of the new tariffs.
Global 10% levy expires
The previous 10% universal tariff on US imports, in effect for some time, reaches its expiration date.
New Section 301 tariffs imposed
The US imposes forced-labour tariffs of 10–12.5% on 60 countries covering 99.4% of imports, shortly after the prior levy expires.
India bans forced-labour imports
India amends its foreign trade policy to prohibit imports of goods made with forced labour, a move that later influences its tariff rate.
New US tariffs of 10-12.5% on imports from 60 countries, including major manufacturing hubs like India, threaten to raise costs and disrupt global supply chains. A coalition of 25 states argues the levies will increase consumer prices and business expenses, challenging their legality. The outcome could reshape sourcing strategies and trade compliance for import-dependent firms.
A 25-state lawsuit filed in the US Court of International Trade contends that the Trump administration’s use of Section 301 to impose forced-labour tariffs on 60 nations is an unlawful expansion of executive power. The case argues the levies are pretextual and violate procedural requirements, following a Supreme Court loss on similar trade measures. If successful, it could set a major precedent on presidential tariff authority.
A legal challenge to blanket Section 301 tariffs on 60 countries—99.4% of imports—could remove a 10-12.5% cost layer if successful, boosting markets and easing inflation fears. Investors face a binary risk: a win for the states would erase billions in added costs, while an upheld tariff regime would squeeze margins and consumer spending, potentially weighing on equities.
