Trump said he would immediately sign an order increasing tariffs globally by 10% under section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 and will begin investigations of unfair trade practices allowing further tariffs. He asserted that he had the authority to impose additional tariffs under existing statutes without congressional approval.
…
Section 122 has never been used, and therefore courts have had no occasion to interpret its language. Some news reports have noted this provision appears to authorize the President to impose across-the-board tariffs on imports in some circumstances.”
I’m not seeing anything in here about when refunds are going out. Much the opposite.
So the Supreme Court ruled the previous tariffs were illegal. The importers are then able to attempt to get restitution for the tariffs that were collected since they went into effect, it will likely be a convoluted process, but the paid them, and thus are able to get them back.
Meanwhile the prices were raised downstream and the citizens pay them, and won’t see a cent.
Now there are likely to be new 10% tariffs across the board, possibly result in another round of price hikes for the consumers! Ah, America! 🇺🇸what a crap hole
