US Supreme Court strikes down swath of Trump global tariffs
The US Supreme Court rules that Donald Trump exceeded his authority in imposing a swath of tariffs that upended global trade, blocking a key tool the president has wielded to impose his economic agenda.
The conservative-majority high court rule six-three in the judgment, saying the International Emergency Economic Powers Act “does not authorize the President to impose tariffs.”
