反对特朗普关税成风潮：从华尔街大佬蔓延到原住民的“合围”

Core Viewpoint - The Trump administration's tariff policy has led to significant business crises for American companies, prompting various stakeholders to challenge the legality of these tariffs through lawsuits and lobbying efforts [1][3]. Group 1: Legal Challenges - At least seven lawsuits have been filed across the U.S. challenging Trump's tariff measures under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), aiming to overturn the tariffs [1][3]. - California was the first state to file a lawsuit against the tariffs, claiming they severely harm the state's economy, followed by a coalition of 12 states alleging that the tariffs disrupt constitutional order and create economic chaos [3][4]. - Various businesses, including a Florida paper company and a Native American tribe, have also filed lawsuits, citing increased costs and violations of treaty rights due to the tariffs [3][4]. Group 2: Business Reactions - Executives from major companies, including Home Depot and German automakers, have engaged directly with the Trump administration to seek tariff exemptions, highlighting the tariffs' potential to disrupt supply chains and inflate prices [5][7]. - Influential business figures, such as Harold Hamm, have leveraged their connections to persuade Trump to reconsider certain tariffs, particularly those affecting energy imports from Canada [7][8]. Group 3: Economic Implications - Experts argue that the tariffs are unlikely to achieve their intended goal of bringing manufacturing back to the U.S., as established global supply chains cannot be easily reestablished domestically [10][11]. - The tariffs are expected to increase production costs in the U.S., potentially harming the international competitiveness of American manufacturing [10][11]. - Consumer confidence has dropped to its lowest level since May 2020, indicating that the tariffs may lead to a slowdown in consumer demand and economic growth [1][11].
