The major questions doctrine, initially embraced by conservative justices to limit the Biden administration, is turning against President Trump as legal challenges arise regarding his exercise of authority. This judicial principle mandates clear congressional authorization for actions of major economic and political consequence. Opponents are leveraging this doctrine to question Trump's tariffs, arguing he fails to justify them under clear legal terms, highlighting a significant shift in the application and political implications of this legal framework.
The major questions doctrine, which requires clear congressional authorization for significant governmental decisions, has become a tool for those challenging President Trumpâs expansive claims of power.
Historically used by conservatives to limit the Biden administration, the major questions doctrine is now being wielded by critics of Trump to question his tariff decisions and presidential authority.
