Trump could ask Supreme Court to halt tariff block as soon as Friday
- On May 29, the Trump administration announced plans to seek emergency Supreme Court relief after a court blocked many of Trump's new tariffs across multiple countries.
- The court ruled that Trump exceeded the authority granted by the 1977 International Emergency Economic Powers Act, which does not allow unlimited tariffs on goods worldwide.
- These tariffs, initially as high as 27% and intended to address fentanyl and trade imbalances, were blocked on goods from Mexico, Canada, China, and most trading partners.
- Officials said the administration will pursue tariffs through other, more complex legal authorities like Section 232, but advisers warned this process could delay policy impact significantly.
- This legal defeat limits Trump's immediate tariff tools, complicates sensitive ongoing negotiations with foreign countries, and weakens the administration's leverage in global trade talks.
