The U.S. Chamber of Commerce is considering options, including taking legal action, to block the Trump administration's newly announced tariffs on goods imported from Mexico.

John Murphy, the Chamber's senior vice president of international affairs, told reporters on Friday that the group feels there's no other option than to fight back against Trump's trade policy.
