Trump Fights Court Order to Refund Some Tariffs

New York Times: “The Trump administration is resisting a court order that requires the government to refund the full $166 billion collected from illegal tariffs, raising the possibility that only some importers will be completely repaid.”

“In a series of recent legal maneuvers, the administration has indicated that it could hold up the return of potentially tens of billions in those previously paid duties. The government collected the revenue under a slate of tariffs first enacted by President Trump last year and struck down by the Supreme Court in February.”
