Supreme Court Rules IEEPA Cannot Be Used to Impose Tariffs (Learning Resources v. Trump)
📌 Why It Matters
This eliminated the primary tariff authority used throughout 2025 and early 2026. The effective tariff rate dropped from roughly 14.3% to 7.3% immediately after the ruling, before the Section 122 replacement was imposed. Tariffs under Section 232, Section 301, and AD/CVD orders remain unaffected.
⚠️ What to Watch
Refund eligibility depends on entry liquidation timing. De minimis duty-free treatment remains suspended. Section 232, 301, and AD/CVD tariffs still in effect.
