Editor's Note: On May 29, a federal appeals court issued a stay of a U.S. court ruling from May 28 that blocked several of the Trump administration's tariffs. The appeals court did not indicate how long the pause will last, but its current briefing schedule runs through June 9. The U.S. Court of International Trade's permanent injunction against most new U.S. tariffs will temporarily halt the Trump administration's aggressive trade policies , reducing other countries' incentive to offer the United States substantial concessions, but the White House will likely expand its use of sectoral tariffs and other trade tools. On May 28, a three-judge panel under the U.S. Court of International Trade, or CIT, unanimously ruled against the Trump administration's use of the 1977 International Emergency Economic Powers Act, or IEEPA, to implement the majority of tariffs introduced during Trump's second term, issuing a permanent injunction against the tariffs.
