President Donald Trump imposed new import tariffs on products from dozens of U.S. trading partners, citing forced labor conditions. The tariffs, effective July 24, 2026, replace temporary global tariffs and apply to 99.4% of imports from countries including Canada, the European Union, Japan, Mexico, and the United Kingdom.

President Donald Trump imposed new tariffs ranging from 10% to 12.5% on imports from nearly 60 countries, including Canada, the European Union, and Japan, citing forced labor conditions. The tariffs replace previous global tariffs invalidated by the Supreme Court and could affect 99.4% of imports, according to U.S. trade authorities.

President Donald Trump is imposing new 10% to 12.5% tariffs on imports from 60 countries, citing inadequate enforcement of forced labor bans. These tariffs replace temporary 10% levies set to expire Friday and are authorized under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974. The move follows a Supreme Court ruling that invalidated earlier tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act.

President Donald Trump is imposing new double-digit tariffs (10% to 12.5%) on imports from 60 countries as temporary 10% levies expire Friday. The tariffs target countries allegedly failing to enforce bans on forced labor goods, using Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974. The move follows a Supreme Court ruling that invalidated earlier tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act.

A U.S. federal court ruled that the government can continue collecting 10% worldwide tariffs while legal challenges proceed. The tariffs, imposed under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974, are set to expire on July 24. A separate court previously found the tariffs illegal, but the Trump administration secured a procedural victory.

The Court of International Trade showed skepticism toward Trump's use of Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 to justify 10% global tariffs, questioning whether long-term trade deficits qualify as the 'large and serious' balance-of-payments crises Congress intended. Legal challenges persist as the court debates the scope of presidential authority under the statute, with implications for Trump's broader trade policies.

A federal court is reviewing challenges to President Donald Trump's temporary global tariffs, which were imposed under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 after the Supreme Court invalidated his initial IEEPA-based tariffs. The case centers on whether Section 122 authorizes tariffs to address trade deficits, with the tariffs set to expire in July 2026.
