"We've been talking about doing this for months, because we always knew the tariffs were blatantly illegal, but we didn't decide until the ruling came down. Honestly, we were skeptical that the Supreme Court would actually have the balls to stand up to Trump on this, given how much other illegal stuff they've let him keep doing with unsigned shadow docket opinions."
"Most companies passed tariffs onto their customers, and now the companies and their shareholders stand to get the refunds. It seems so obvious that the people who actually paid the tariffs should be the ones getting the money back."
Following the Supreme Court's February 20 ruling striking down President Trump's tariffs, Cards Against Humanity announced a plan to refund customers who overpaid for their products due to tariff costs. The company had been considering this action for months but waited for the court decision before committing. After the ruling, numerous major corporations including Costco, Hasbro, and Dyson filed lawsuits seeking tariff refunds, while states like New York and Illinois demanded billions in refunds for their residents. Cards Against Humanity's initiative highlights a broader question about whether tariff refunds will actually reach consumers who ultimately bore the costs through higher retail prices.
