During a July 31 hearing, appellate judges evaluated the extent of executive power concerning tariffs imposed by President Trump during a national emergency. This case arose from an appeal by the Trump administration against a ruling that temporarily blocked his broad tariff actions. Judges expressed skepticism about the government’s claim that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act allows the president to impose tariffs without Congressional approval. Critics argued that Trump’s indefinite tariffs differ from Nixon’s temporary measures, highlighting a potential overreach of presidential authority. The court has yet to announce its decision.
