The Constitution explicitly gives Congress—not presidents—the power to impose tariffs.
Yet despite this clear constitutional mandate, in recent decades, various statutes have been used to justify presidential tariff actions under the guise of national security or economic emergency.
On July 30, Pacific Legal Foundation is hosting a virtual discussion to get to the bottom of the hotly debated question: Who exactly holds the power?
Our panelists include leading litigators, legal experts, and business owners actively challenging the constitutionality of tariffs issued by the executive branch earlier this year.
