AIIS Seeks Donations to Cover Costs of Section 232 Suit
Written by Tim Triplett
The American Institute for International Steel is seeking reinforcements in its legal battle over the constitutionality of the Trump administration’s Section 232 tariffs. In a letter to AIIS members and steel supply chain partners this week, the trade group solicited donations to help cover its legal bills.
“Legal costs and related expenses are mounting quickly. We will certainly be outspent by the government in this effort, but we will not be out-lawyered or out-worked,” wrote AIIS Chairman John D. Foster.
