BusinessUS Trade Court Rules Trump 10 Percent Global Tariffs Are Unlawful
The US Court of International Trade struck down the Trump administration 10 percent global tariffs on May 7, ruling 2-1 that they lacked legal authorization under the Trade Act of 1974.
The U.S. Court of International Trade ruled 2-1 on May 7 that the Trump administration's 10 percent global import tariffs enacted in February are illegal.
The court's majority opinion held that these tariffs, citing Section 122 of the 1974 Trade Act as authorization, are not supported by that provision. The legislation does not authorize such broad global taxation measures.
This represents another legal setback for Trump following the Supreme Court's February ruling that struck down his earlier double-digit tariffs.
These new tariffs were re-imposed by authorities under the 1974 statute and are set to expire on July 24.
Small business plaintiffs argued that these new tariffs represent an attempt to circumvent the Supreme Court ruling.
The Trump administration is expected to appeal this decision, though the tariffs remain temporarily in effect pending further judicial review.
