Tariffs Under Fire Again | Sydney News

Published 2 days, 5 hours ago
Description

Two American companies are suing the Trump administration over new 12.5% import tariffs on Australian goods, claiming the investigations justifying them were rigged from the start. Represented by the Liberty Justice Center — which previously won a landmark case against similar tariffs — the businesses argue officials publicly announced tariff reinstatement before investigations concluded, undermining the legal basis. Legal experts are split: some think these tariffs are more defensible structurally, while others see them as another example of presidential overreach likely to be struck down by the Supreme Court. Meanwhile, Australian firms brace for economic fallout, with Canberra opting for diplomacy over legal battle as the U.S. president defends the tariffs as standard policy.
