On Wednesday, a federal court ruled that Trump didn’t have the authority to impose tariffs in the first place A three-judge panel at the U.S. Court of International Trade (USCIT) in New York ruled that Trump overstepped his authority by implementing a tariff regime on dozens of countries in a bid to enliven domestic manufacturing and to slash budget deficits by generating revenue from import levies.
The Trump administration has justified the tariffs by citing the International Emergency Economic Powers Act of 1977, or IEEPA, which gives the president the power to regulate imports during certain emergency situations. But the court on Wednesday rejected the government's interpretation of the law, and said it would be unconstitutional for any law passed by Congress to give the president blanket authority to set tariffs.
Who cares..? Singh's put higher tariffs on the sale of Pools..!
