Tariffs, Supreme Court upholds Trump's appeal

The US Supreme Court announced that it had accepted the tariffs appeal filed by Donald Trump and set an emergency hearing for November. The issue to be resolved is the president's power to impose tariffs on the US's trading partners. The appeal is expected to be heard quickly. The accelerated timeline calls for the judges to convene for oral arguments in the first week of November. A federal appeals court, in a 7-4 decision, had ruled that the US president's use of theInternational Emergency Economic Powers Act (Ieepa) to justify tariffs was unlawful.
