Tariffs in an Uncertain Legal Environment

The Supreme Court is slated to hear arguments on the Trump administration’s power to levy widespread tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). Earlier this year, multiple federal courts found that the administration had overstepped its authority under IEEPA, reversing many of the president’s tariffs. Please join us for a timely discussion of the stakes for tariffs and the U.S. economy in this moment of legal uncertainty.
