U.S. appeals court says most Trump tariffs illegal, Reuters reports

A U.S. appeals court determined that the majority of President Donald Trump’s tariffs are illegal, Reuters’ Dietrich Knauth reports. The ruling from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in Washington, D.C. covered the legality of what the president calls “reciprocal” tariffs imposed in April, as well as a separate slate of levies imposed in February against China, Canada, and Mexico, the author says, noting that the move does not affect tariffs issued under other legal authority, including tariffs on steel and aluminum imports. The case is anticipated to be appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court, the author notes.
