The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) does not provide authority for certain tariff measures imposed under that statute. IEEPA is a national security law that allows the president to regulate economic activity during declared emergencies.
The decision does not affect all existing tariffs, and other trade authorities remain in place. As agencies evaluate next steps, the broader tariff landscape continues to evolve. The court ruling did not indicate how the U.S. government expects to return billions of dollars that it has already collected from importers.
