President Trump signed an executive order imposing a 10 percent global tariff on most imports to the U.S. in response to a Supreme Court ruling that invalidated previous trade tariffs. The new tariffs are based on the Trade Act of 1974 and are set to take effect on February 24, 2026, with some exemptions. Trump criticized the Supreme Court justices for their decision and indicated the tariffs could be extended beyond the initial 150-day period, potentially using other trade authorities. The process for refunds to affected companies remains uncertain and likely lengthy, as the ruling did not specify how refunds should be handled.
