A federal court will hear arguments on Tuesday challenging President Trump's recently imposed tariffs on over 180 countries. Five businesses argue that Trump exceeded his authority under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), claiming his declared 'national emergency' is unfounded. The plaintiffs seek to block the tariffs and claim damages. The Department of Justice counters that IEEPA clearly grants the President this power. The hearing will be livestreamed.
