US EditionBessent to Attend Supreme Court Hearing on Tariffs
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent will attend the Supreme Court hearing on Trump tariffs, calling the case a national security issue with contingency plans if tariffs are struck down.
- U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said on Monday, Nov. 3 that he will attend the U.S. Supreme Court hearing on President Donald Trump's tariffs on Wednesday, November 5, 2025.
- Earlier this year, lower courts found President Donald Trump lacked power under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act to set tariffs but left them in place pending Supreme Court review.
- Bessent said the administration can use Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 and Section 338 , while already relying on Sections 232 and 301.
- Officials say the case affects only some tariffs but also the broader policy, noting Bessent described it as national security and said, `You should assume that they're here to stay,' covering only a portion of tariffs imposed this year.
- President Donald Trump said he would not attend, calling it a potential distraction in a social media post on Nov 2, 2025, and Scott Bessent said he will emphasize this is an economic emergency amid questions about judicial intimidation.
