Oregon Tariffs Court Order
(Salem, OR) -- The state of Oregon is trying to put a stop to President Trump's new global tariffs. Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield filed a court order to stop the global tariffs late last week. Rayfield argues Trump is violating the law by attempting to use the Trade Act of 1974 as a basis for the tariffs. Rayfield says Section 122 only allows tariffs when there's large and serious balance-of-payments deficits, and that doesn't exist. A trade deficit is not a balance-of-payment deficit.
