| | | ASK THE EDITORS | How Trump's tariffs got struck down | Q: Why did Chief Justice Roberts and the other justices cast their decision against Trump's tariffs? — Bob from Oregon | A: The case hinged on whether Congress clearly gave the president the authority to impose tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), which President Trump used to initiate his tariff policy. | Chief Justice Roberts, writing for the six-justice majority, said the law's power to "regulate" imports does not clearly include the power to impose tariffs, which the Court described as a form of taxation reserved to Congress under Article I of the Constitution. The majority also highlighted the "major questions doctrine," which requires clear congressional authorization for actions of vast economic significance. | In the dissent, however, Justices Kavanaugh, Thomas, and Alito argued that the law's text is broad enough to cover tariffs. They also warned that the majority was improperly limiting executive power in the foreign affairs and national security arena, where presidents have historically been given greater flexibility. | Immediately following the decision, Trump slapped a 15 percent tariff on the entire globe. His justification is Section 122 of the 1974 Trade Act, which allows the administration to impose a tariff of up to 15 percent for 150 days before needing congressional approval. | So, the Trump administration came prepared. And they just bought themselves 150 days to figure out a new, longer-lasting plan. | | | Submit your question here. Request topics to cover here. |
