Law’s Juscelino Colares says Supreme Court could uphold Trump’s tariff plan under emergency law
The Center Square: Juscelino Colares, the Schott-van den Eynden Professor of Business Law at the School of Law, said the Supreme Court could uphold President Trump’s tariffs under a 1977 emergency law, drawing parallels to Nixon’s import surcharge. He noted the court may allow duties temporarily if Trump later seeks congressional approval, potentially cementing the highest tariffs in nearly a century.
