US Administration Seeks to Replace Expiring Tariffs Following Supreme Court Ruling
The US Treasury saw a significant drop in revenue after the Supreme Court invalidated key tariffs imposed under President Trump's administration in February. Facing a July 24 deadline, the administration is working to replace expiring Section 122 tariffs with more durable tariffs under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974, which targets unfair trade practices. Recent actions include imposing 25% tariffs on certain Brazilian imports. Congressional extension of tariffs is unlikely amid upcoming midterm elections and voter concerns over living costs.
