Trump Asks U.S. Supreme Court to Uphold Controversial Tariffs Ruled Illegal.

President Donald Trump has asked the United States Supreme Court to overturn a lower court decision that found many of his sweeping tariffs were illegal.

In a petition filed, the administration asked the justices to quickly intervene to rule that the president has the power to impose such import taxes on foreign nations.

The case could overturn Trump’s economic and foreign policy agenda and force the US to refund billions in tariffs.
