Trump Vows to Challenge Court Decision that Strikes Down Tariffs
The court ruled that President Trump's use of emergency powers to impose tariffs overstepped constitutional limits, affecting billions in import taxes collected through mid-October.
- In a 7-4 ruling announced Friday, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit declared most of President Donald Trump's tariffs unlawful, largely upholding a May trade-court ruling and allowing levies until October 14 for Supreme Court appeal.
- By invoking the 1977 International Emergency Economic Powers Act, President Donald Trump declared national emergencies related to border security and drug trafficking, departing from established tariff schedules to impose unprecedented, open-ended levies.
- President Donald Trump imposed tariffs after declaring national emergencies, but the Court of International Trade declared them illegal in a combined case.
- Shortly after the ruling, President Donald Trump posted on Truth Social, the administration vowed to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court, and the Justice Department warned revoking tariffs could mean "financial ruin" and hurt the U.S. Treasury, adding uncertainty to financial markets.
- The ruling leaves intact tariffs authorized under Section 232 and earlier China levies, while President Donald Trump retains alternative tools like Section 301, Section 232, and Section 338 that limit tariff speed or severity.
