Trump Asks Court to Freeze Tariff Ruling Amid Import Surge Fears
The ruling bars collection from the plaintiffs but leaves most importers exposed as the administration is expected to appeal.
- On Thursday, a three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of International Trade ruled President Donald Trump's 10% global tariffs "invalid" and "unauthorized by law" for three specific plaintiffs challenging the administration's use of Section 122.
- Following a Supreme Court decision invalidating earlier tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, the administration invoked Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 in February to impose these levies as a stopgap measure.
- Because the injunction applies only to the State of Washington, Burlap & Barrel, and Basic Fun, other importers must pursue their own litigation to seek relief from the duties.
- The administration will appeal the ruling, United States Trade Representative Jamieson Greer confirmed, potentially seeking to continue tariff collection while the case moves through appellate courts.
- As the current Section 122 levies expire July 24, investigations under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974 are targeting unfair trade practices in over 70 countries, representing 99% of U.S. imports.
