#TrumpTariffs Trump can continue to impose tariffs on imports from most U.S. trading partners, as well as on Canada, China and Mexico over fentanyl. The ruling applies to tariffs imposed since January under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), a law designed to address unusual and extraordinary threats during a national emergency. The court did not address some of the sectoral tariffs, which #TRUMP has imposed on imports of cars, steel and aluminum using a separate law. Trump claims broad authority to impose tariffs under IEEPA. The law has been used in the past to impose sanctions on U.S. enemies or freeze their assets. Trump is the first U.S. president to use it to impose tariffs. Trump called the trade deficit a national emergency when deciding on the new tariffs in early April. #Write2Earn
