The United States===Supreme Court of the United States has ruled that tariffs imposed by former President Donald Trump under an emergency powers law were unconstitutional. This decision has prompted several large U.S. corporations, including FedEx, Costco, and Revlon, to sue the United States government for full refunds on the tariffs they paid. The United States===United States Department of the Treasury had collected over $133 billion from these import taxes. The National Retail Federation has urged for a seamless refund process, anticipating that these refunds will stimulate economic activity and allow companies to reinvest. Donald Trump has expressed strong disapproval of the ruling and has vowed to find alternative means to collect tariffs, immediately resorting to Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 for a temporary measure, though any extension would require approval from the United States===United States Congress.
