On February 20th, the US Supreme Court ruled the president exceeded his authority when he used emergency powers powers to levy tariffs on countries throughout the world.
In response, Trump imposed a temporary tariff using part of the Trade Act of 1974.
In the new lawsuit, the 22 states say the tariff is illegal and the suit asks for the federal government to begin issuing repayments to states and businesses for money they've already paid due to tariffs.
In a statement to the Lexington Howard later, Governor Andy Beshear said, quote, Americans and American businesses have paid 90% of President Trump's tariffs at a time when costs are already too high and families need help.
