Panel of judges finds the president overstepped his authority by imposing across-the-board duties on imports from trading partners.
A U.S. trade court ruled that President Donald Trump exceeded his authority by imposing blanket tariffs on imports, issuing a permanent injunction to halt them and requiring a government response within 10 days. The Court of International Trade stated that only Congress has the power to regulate foreign commerce, undermining Trump’s global trade strategy and creating uncertainty in negotiations with multiple countries. The ruling stemmed from lawsuits by small businesses and states challenging the tariffs, with Trump’s administration appealing the decision.
