Two family-owned toy companies are asking the US Supreme Court to consider striking down many of President Donald Trump’s sweeping tariffs, putting a high-stakes fight with worldwide economic implications before the justices for the first time.

The request filed Tuesday seeks to put the case on an expedited track with the possibility of a definitive Supreme Court ruling by the end of the year. The filing asks the justices to take the unusual step of considering the case without waiting for a federal appeals court to rule.

Learning Resources Inc. and hand2mind Inc. said the issue of Trump’s tariff authority under the 1977 International Emergency Economic Powers Act is so economically weighty that the justices should intervene immediately.
