Trump can keep tariffs for now

119

Donald Trump wins a small victory. A court in the USA makes a decision. It is about tariffs on goods. Tariffs are extra money for goods from abroad.

Two firms and the state Washington complain. They do not want to pay these tariffs. A first court says: The tariffs are wrong. Now the higher court changes this for now.

The firms must pay the tariffs again. The fee is 10 percent of the value. Donald Trump uses an old trade law. The law is from the year 1974.

The US government says: We need these tariffs. They help the economy in the USA. The firms have 7 days for a reply. The tariffs end in July. The Congress can make them longer.
