"But many U.S. businesses have had to raise prices and adjust in other ways to offset higher costs spurred by the tariffs. It remains to be seen how much relief businesses and consumers will actually get from Friday's ruling. Within hours of the court's decision, Trump pledged to use a different law to impose a 10% tariff on all imports that would last 150 days, and to explore other ways to impose additional tariffs on countries he says engage in unfair trade practices."
"Efforts to claw back the estimated $133 billion to $175 billion of previously collected tariffs now deemed illegal are bound to be complicated, and will likely favor larger companies with more resources. Consumers hoping for a refund are unlikely to be compensated. The fight against tariffs continues With Trump's unyielding position on tariffs, many businesses are braced for years of court battles."
The Supreme Court struck down tariffs imposed under an emergency powers law while the president vowed to pursue alternative authorities to maintain duties. The administration maintains tariffs support American manufacturing and reduce the trade gap. Many U.S. companies raised prices and adjusted operations to absorb higher import costs. A 10% tariff on all imports for 150 days was proposed as a workaround. Recovering an estimated $133–$175 billion in previously collected tariffs will be legally and administratively complex and likely favor larger firms. Consumers are unlikely to obtain refunds, and many businesses expect prolonged litigation and continued uncertainty.
