Newsom Demands Tariff Refunds After Court Curbs Trump Power

California Governor Gavin Newsom urged President Donald Trump to return billions of dollars collected under sweeping US tariffs after the Supreme Court ruled that the global duties were imposed illegally.

In a 6-3 ruling on Friday, the court found that Trump exceeded his authority when using emergency powers to impose so-called “reciprocal” tariffs without approval from Congress. The ruling said federal law doesn’t give the president unilateral power to impose such wide-ranging tariffs.
