Trump’s Revised Tariff Path Avoids Strong Resistance in Congress

Trump Says Alternatives Will Be Used to Replace Rejected Tariffs

President Donald Trump said he doesn’t need to go to Congress to restore his sweeping global tariffs after the Supreme Court decision Friday that struck them down.

Asked if he would go to Congress on the matter, Trump told reporters at the White House “I don’t need to” because the authorities he is seeking are already approved. Trump said if he did ask Congress for additional tariff authority, he believed he would probably get it.
