US Implements Temporary Tariffs After Supreme Court Rebuke
Read, Watch or Listen
Washington — The Supreme Court struck down emergency tariffs President Trump imposed, finding he exceeded his authority. After Friday's ruling, the White House announced a temporary 10% global tariff that took effect Tuesday and lasts 150 days unless Congress extends it. Trump said he may raise the rate to 15% and keep exclusions for sector probes and USMCA goods. Sector-specific tariffs on steel and autos remain. The decision prompted legal questions about refunds and business uncertainty, and Trump criticized the justices during his State of the Union, and markets sought guidance urgently. Based on 6 articles reviewed and supporting research.
