Here's When the SCOTUS Will Rule on President Donald Trump's Tariffs
People are wondering when the United States Supreme Court will rule on President Donald Trump's tariffs. The SCOUTS heard oral arguments on Nov. 5, 2025.
The Supreme Court of the United States heard oral arguments about President Donald Trump's global tariffs on Nov. 5, 2025, and people are curious as to when a ruling will be issued. According to Reuters, the SCOTUS justices were skeptical of Trump's authority to enforce tariffs. Trump imposed the global tariffs under the 1977 International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), which is a law regulating imports during national emergencies and has no tariff references.
Trump imposed the tariffs back in February, taxing products from Mexico, Canada, and China. The president claimed that drug traffickers were selling drugs in the U.S. from Mexico, China, and Canada and declared it an emergency. Trump imposed tariffs again in April and ordered 10 to 50 percent tariffs on products for nearly every country exporting to the U.S., per the BBC.
