Summary
The Trump administration plans to appeal a federal judge's order that would allow all businesses that paid invalidated tariffs to seek refunds, not just those that filed lawsuits. The U.S. Supreme Court previously ruled that President Trump lacked constitutional authority to impose higher import taxes on goods from nearly every other country. While some businesses have started receiving tariff refunds following the ruling, the appeal could halt the refund process for many companies.
