FEDERAL CIRCUIT COURT OF APPEALS HOLDING ON TRUMP’S TARIFFS: The Trafficking and Reciprocal Tariffs Are Illegal.

The article focuses on the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals' ruling that the trafficking and reciprocal tariffs imposed under President Donald Trump's executive orders were not authorized by the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. It explains that the court found no statutory basis for tariff authority within IEEPA, especially when compared with other U.S. trade statutes that explicitly delegate tariff-imposing power to the president, and it emphasizes limits on presidential authority.
