Supreme Court Strikes Down Trump’s Sweeping Global Tariffs
- On Friday, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that President Donald Trump lacks unilateral authority under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act to impose tariffs, with Chief Justice John Roberts writing, `We hold that the IEEPA does not authorize the president to impose tariffs.`
- Under the 1977 law, President Donald Trump invoked IEEPA in April 2025 to impose 'reciprocal' tariffs on most countries, including duties on Canada, China, and Mexico.
- Tariff notices revealed the U.S. Treasury collected more than $130 billion from import taxes, with duties reaching 145% on China and 50% on India and Brazil.
- The justices provided no guidance on refunds, leaving more than $130 billion in tariffs collected unresolved and refund claims to lower federal courts, while steel and aluminum tariffs remain unaffected.
- Despite the setback, the Trump administration says it may recreate similar duties under other statutes and expects to keep the tariff framework in place in the coming months, while the Congressional Budget Office estimates the tariffs could cost $3 trillion over the next decade.
