Trump And Tariffs.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit has struck down Trump's authority to impose tariffs but left them in place pending an appeal to the CIT or the SCOTUS. The 7-4 majority ruled that the Trump Administration's actions under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) were unconstitutional. 

The court stated that power rested with Congress and that it alone possesses legislative authority to approve tariffs. However, Trump can lawfully impose tariffs under several other pieces of legislation already passed by Congress, and the latter could also ratify Trump's tariffs during the current session. Proposed legislation in the House and Senate will likely pass.

In short, the Trump Administration will prevail in the end.
