Trump says he’ll ‘remember’ companies that don’t seek tariff refund

CBP’s new portal could return up to $166 billion in tariff payments, while Trump praised companies that have not yet filed claims.

  • On Tuesday, President Donald Trump warned he will "remember" companies seeking tariff refunds, characterizing firms pursuing the money as "the enemy" after the Supreme Court struck down his IEEPA tariffs.
  • The Supreme Court struck down tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act in February, prompting U.S. Customs and Border Protection to launch the CAPE portal on April 20 to process roughly $127 billion in refund claims.
  • While companies like Costco Wholesale Corp. and FedEx Corp. sued to preserve refund rights, Apple Inc. and Amazon.com Inc. have avoided filing—a move some experts view as an attempt to sidestep Trump's displeasure.
  • Trump told CNBC his administration is working to impose alternative tariffs under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974, claiming these mechanisms may produce "bigger numbers" despite being "a little more unwieldy."
  • Judge Richard Eaton issued a temporary stay on the refund system Tuesday, ordering CBP to submit a progress report by April 28 even as the portal continues accepting submissions despite reported technical glitches.
