Appellate Court Rules Most of Trump’s Tariffs Were Unlawfully Imposed

HeadlineSep 02, 2025

President Trump has vowed to take his tariff fight to the Supreme Court after a federal appeals court ruled on Friday that most of the tariffs imposed by the White House on nearly every other country have no legal basis. This includes the “Liberation Day” tariffs imposed in April, as well as earlier tariffs against Canada, Mexico and China. The decision upholds an earlier ruling by the U.S. Court of International Trade. In its decision, the appeals court called tariffs “a core Congressional power.” After headlines, we’ll speak with the former Solicitor General Neal Katyal, who argued the legal challenge to the tariffs, as well as Oregon’s attorney general, who brought the case.
