After the Supreme Court struck down the Liberation Day tariffs as unconstitutional, Trump invoked Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 to impose a temporary 15 percent universal tariff for 150 days, while also initiating a $170 billion refund process for businesses that had already paid the old duties.
