The move under Section 301 followed a US probe into the alleged failure of about 60 economies to prevent forced labour in their supply chains to the detriment of American workers.\nThe states allege the administration is improperly invoking provisions of the trade law and that the new duties are operating \"as an implementation of the president's broad tariff policy rather than the kind of tailored measure authorised under Section 301\". \nA White House spokesperson didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.\nTrump is rebuilding a tariff wall that was struck down in February when the Supreme Court ruled his global levies, issued under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, or IEEPA, were illegal.\nThe president then imposed 10% global tariffs, under Section 122 of the Trade Act. Those were ruled illegal by a trade court, but they were allowed to stay in effect during an appeal. The Section 122 tariffs expired last month.\nSection 301 allows the US Trade Representative, under the direction of the president, to impose tariffs in response to other nations' trade measures it deems discriminatory to American businesses or in violation of US rights under international trade agreements.\nIn one of the earlier suits by a pair of small businesses - spice importer Burlap and Barrel Inc and watch retailer Collective Horology LLC - their lawyers alleged the new tariffs failed to reflect the \"country-specific inquiry\" that Congress expected when it adopted Section 301. They filed the case as a proposed class action suit covering all importers of record who will pay the new tariffs.\nThe businesses argued that the trade representative failed to explain \"how each economy's particular practices burden or restrict United States commerce, rather than relying on generalised assertions regarding the effects of forced labour and forced-labour inputs in global supply chains\".\nThe latest litigation comes as the administration continues to face fallout from the IEEPA tariffs. In the months since the Supreme Court invalidated those tariffs, customs authorities have had to contend with refund demands from thousands of businesses that paid the roughly US$166 billion ($212.86 billion) in levies collected.\nUploaded by Chng Shear Lane","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":false,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"-1","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"isVideo":false,"video":null,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"need_login_tip":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"isLaohu8Offline":false,"tenantId":"TBGLOBAL","deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.47.1","shortVersion":"4.47.1","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/2656551060","isCrawlerRequest":true}
