In a nutshell, the Court ruled that Congress has not delegated authority to Trump some sort of umlimited authoirity to set tariffs:

  • Worldwide and Retaliatory Tariffs lack any identifiable limits
  • thus fall outside the scope of sec. 1702
  • maximum limit to unilateral Presidential tariffs for "balance of payments" related means is 15% maximum for not more than 5 months
  • fentanyl and reciprocal tariffs are moot (questionable)

Also, it did not address any question of sectoral tariffs. Those appear safe for Trump for now.

In a nutshell, again, Trump has scope for tariffs, just perhaps not as wide as he initially announced.
