NJ importer sues Trump over rarely used law behind Canada tariffs
A New Jersey food importer has filed a lawsuit challenging President Donald Trump’s power to invoke a Depression-era law to levy a 50% tariff on $20 billion worth of Canadian goods. The Gellert Global Group, a third-generation family business that imports Canadian cheese, took its case Tuesday to the U.S. Court of International Trade.
In August, Trump reached back to Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930 to impose the tariffs on Canada, prompting dollar-for-dollar retaliation from Ottawa and straining already-tense relations between the neighbors and longtime allies. Section 338 tariff authority has never been used in a trade dispute, let alone tested in court.
