Supreme Court to rule on Trump's tariffs, my guess is
See: Supreme Court agrees to decide the fate of Trump’s tariffs
.
My guess is, our Supreme Court may very well find, and rightly so, Congress’s power includes overruling any tariff which Trump has imposed, and not our Supreme Court.Setting the stage for a major ruling on presidential power, the Supreme Court on Tuesday agreed to decide whether a 1977 federal law giving the president certain emergency powers allowed President Donald Trump to levy tariffs on nearly all goods imported into the United States through a series of executive orders.
The case revolves around the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, under which Congress gave the green light allowing the president to “deal with any unusual and extraordinary threat, which has its source in whole or substantial part outside the United States, to the national security, foreign policy, or economy of the United States”
So, it seems to me it would be Congress, and not our Supreme Court's job, to shut down [by specific legislation] the President's actions if they exceed the policy making authority placed in his hands by Congress.
For the Supreme Court to jump in and stop the President from acting under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act would be meddling with a policy making decision which under the circumstances can only be rightfully made by Congress and the President .
Keep in mind our Supreme Court has correctly stated:
“…..we are not at liberty to second-guess congressional determinations and policy judgments of this order, however debatable or arguably unwise they may be…The wisdom of Congress’ action, however, is not within our province to second guess.”
