Tariffs imposed by Trump restored temporarily following court ruling in the U.S. - Federal court temporarily re-enables Trump's tariffs on imported goods.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit halted the implementation of a lower court's ruling that invalidated President Trump's tariffs on goods from numerous countries. The appeals court's decision, made on May 29, 2025, temporarily reinstated Trump's tariffs while it reviews the administration's arguments in the case.
In a unanimous decision, the U.S. Court of International Trade (CIT) had previously struck down the tariffs, stating that Trump lacked the authority to impose such broad tariffs unilaterally based on the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA).
The Trump administration criticized the original decision, arguing that it would cause irreparable national-security and economic harms. If the appeals court does not provide satisfactory relief, the administration may take the case directly to the Supreme Court.
The reinstatement of the tariffs temporarily halts the administration’s duty cuts that initially lowered tariffs from high amounts to a basic rate of ten percent. The tariffs have been controversial, disrupting global supply chains and prompting trade disputes with various countries.
The original CIT ruling is not yet final, and the appeals court has not issued a ruling on the merits of the case. For now, Trump's tariffs have been reinstated, but their future remains uncertain as the appeals court considers the administration's appeal.
