Appeals Court Temporarily Halts Ruling Against Trump-Era Tariffs

A federal appeals court has temporarily paused a lower court's decision that deemed President Donald Trump's broad global tariffs unlawful. This action allows the administration to continue collecting import taxes, following a U.S. Court of International Trade ruling on October 1, 2026, which stated Trump exceeded his authority under the 1977 International Emergency Economic Powers Act by imposing tariffs on goods from multiple countries.
