Can Trump still impose tariffs after the Supreme Court ruling? | Donald Trump News
The US Supreme Court ruled that President Donald Trump exceeded his authority by using the 1977 International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to impose global tariffs. The court, in a 6-3 decision, stated that IEEPA does not grant the president the power to unilaterally impose sweeping tariffs and remanded the case to the US Court of International Trade (CIT) for a refund process. While the ruling invalidates Trump's existing tariffs, he still has other legal avenues to pursue trade restrictions through Section 232 or Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974, as well as targeted actions under anti-dumping and countervailing duty laws. Trump criticized the decision, claiming presidents should have sweeping trade authority.
