AG James leads coalition of 11 AGs in securing ruling against Trump administration’s tariffs

Published Date: Feb 20, 2026

AG ​James won a major victory after the United States Supreme Court ruled that sweeping tariffs imposed by the Trump administration under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) violate the law.

“These illegal tariffs caused immense economic chaos, raising costs for families and businesses throughout our country. The Supreme Court has agreed that this administration has no authority to impose massive new taxes on a whim. This is a critical victory for the rule of law and our economy, and I will keep fighting to protect New Yorkers from destructive policies that make life less affordable.” – AG James
