# Supreme Court takes up Trump tariffs case

> The Supreme Court will expedite its review of President Trump's tariffs, determining if he can use emergency powers under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). The court will hear oral arguments in early November, following lower courts' rejections of the administration's claims. Solicitor General D. John Sauer emphasized the tariffs as a key economic and foreign-policy initiative. The administration hopes the conservative-majority court will overturn previous rulings against the tariffs.

## Supreme Court to speedily review Trump’s tariffs

The court announced Tuesday it will take up whether President Trump can use emergency powers to justify sweeping tariffs on trading partners across the globe, agreeing to the administration’s request to hear its appeal — and fast.

The expedited schedule will have the justices take the bench for oral arguments in the first week of November, a late addition to the calendar.

Solicitor General **D. John Sauer** has minced no words in describing the stakes, telling the justices that Trump’s tariffs are his “most significant economic and foreign-policy initiative.”

The justices will hear appeals in several underlying cases that concern whether the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (**IEEPA**) authorizes Trump’s sweeping tariffs.

Lower courts have **rejected the administration’s arguments**, but the administration has held out hope that the conservative-majority Supreme Court will rescue the tariffs, quickly appealing to the justices and urging them to move with speed.
