Uncertainty continues for Trump tariffs after court ruling

03:01

Washington — A federal appeals court in Washington, D.C., on Thursday temporarily halted a federal trade court’s decision blocking most of President Trump’s sweeping tariffs, reinstating the levies for now.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit said in a brief order that it would grant the Trump administration’s request for an immediate administrative stay “to the extent that the judgments and the permanent injunctions entered by the Court of International Trade in these cases are temporarily stayed” for now.

A three-judge panel on the trade court unanimously ruled Wednesday that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act of 1977, which Mr. Trump invoked to impose the levies, did not give the president the authority to set unlimited tariffs on imports from nearly every foreign nation. 

The U.S. Court of International Trade permanently blocked Mr. Trump’s 10% tariff assessed on virtually every U.S. trading partner, as well as the president’s duties on imports from Mexico, Canada and China.
