A US appeals court has temporarily blocked a previous ruling that deemed former President Trump’s 10% tariff on all goods imported from all countries unlawful. This extension allows the government to continue collecting the tariff while it appeals the initial decision. The original ruling, made by the Court of International Trade, had found the tariffs exceeded Trump’s authority. The Biden administration has continued to utilize the tariffs as part of its trade strategy. The appeals court did not provide a timeline for when it will issue a final decision on the legality of the tariffs. This pause prevents immediate disruption to the existing tariff structure and ongoing trade practices. The case centers on whether the former president had the legal authority to implement such broad tariffs under the Trade Expansion Act of 1962.
