The Supreme Court of the United States, in a 6–3 decision, struck down Donald Trump’s global tariffs, ruling the International Emergency Economic Powers Act does not authorize unilateral import duties, reaffirming Congress’ exclusive taxation power.
The Trump administration urged a New York court to maintain President Trump’s tariffs, claiming they are vital for managing global tensions, particularly between India and Pakistan, and facilitating trade negotiations with China. Officials warned that blocking the tariffs could destabilize international relations and harm U.S. interests globally.
