Governor Newsom issues statement on court decision affirming Trump's tariffs as unlawful

SACRAMENTO – Governor Gavin Newsom issued the following statement after a federal court ruled today that President Trump exceeded his use of emergency powers to enact broad-sweeping tariffs that hurt states, consumers, and businesses:

"Like we said when we filed our lawsuit: These tariffs are illegal, full stop. The court agreed today that Donald Trump overstepped his authority with his unlawful tariffs, which have created chaos and hurt American families and businesses."

On April 16, Governor Newsom and Attorney General Rob Bonta filed a lawsuit arguing that President Trump lacks the authority to unilaterally impose tariffs through the International Economic Emergency Powers Act, creating immediate and irreparable harm to California, the world's fourth largest economy, and nation's leading manufacturing and agriculture state. Today's decision was issued as part of a separate lawsuit filed by private parties and other states, but aligns with California's arguments.
