  • Retailers and companies have already sought refunds in lower courts while small businesses celebrated, with the National Retail Federation calling it `much needed certainty` and a $3 trillion estimate impacts the next decade.
  • Absent congressional action, the decision emphasizes that the Trump administration's tariffs would lapse after 150 days unless Congress votes to extend them, prompting international calls for clarity.
