WASHINGTON, Sept 4, 2025 (BSS/AFP) - The Trump administration asked the US Supreme Court on Wednesday to swiftly hear its appeal of a lower court ruling against the president's tariffs, saying it has already damaged sensitive trade negotiations.

"The Solicitor General... respectfully requests that this Court expedite resolution of this case to the maximum extent feasible, given the enormous importance of quickly confirming the full legal standing of the President's tariffs," John Sauer wrote in a motion filed with the court, requesting oral arguments by early November.
