Trump Tariffs Are Under Legal Review
On May 28, a U.S. trade court ruled that the global reciprocal tariffs set by President Trump are illegal, stating that he had exceeded his authority under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. The decision temporarily blocked tariffs on imports from multiple countries.
On May 29, the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit granted "an immediate administrative stay," temporarily reimposing the 10% global tariffs and the reciprocal tariffs imposed on more than 60 countries. This also applies to the 25% duties on products from Canada and Mexico and the 20% tariff on products from China, set in response to a purported national emergency on drug trafficking.
