United States.. The Court of Appeals confirms the retention of the tariffs imposed by Trump
The U.S. federal appeals court ruled yesterday evening to maintain the tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump, while accelerating the pace of consideration of the appeals filed regarding them.
The court's decision came in response to a request from the Trump administration, which means that the tariffs established in early April will remain in effect during the months of June and July, at least, pending new deliberations scheduled for July 31.
The decision extends the effect of a previous ruling by the same court that suspended the enforcement of a decision by a commercial court in New York, which had considered that Trump exceeded his executive powers by imposing these tariffs without returning to Congress.
About 20 plaintiffs, including companies and U.S. states, are challenging the legal basis on which Trump relied to impose these taxes, arguing that this authority belongs to the legislative branch.
