Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 74983, member: 636"] Costco is suing the administration over its import tariffs. The retailer filed in the U.S. Court of International Trade, arguing the president overstepped by using a 1977 emergency powers law for these levies. It claims only Congress holds that authority. The lawsuit seeks refunds should the Supreme Court rule the tariffs illegal. It echoes other cases from smaller importers already before the justices. The administration defends its use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act as lawful. A White House statement warned of large economic consequences from overturning the tariffs. Even if the administration loses, other legal avenues exist for imposing import taxes. The Supreme Court is expected to rule on the core legality soon. [/QUOTE]
