The Supreme Court Case on Trump’s Tariffs

Today is a big day not only for Supreme Court watchers, but for everyone following economic policy: the Court will hear oral arguments for the case Learning Resources, Inc. v. Trump. The case concerns whether Trump’s tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act are legal, which includes the famous “Liberation Day” tariffs from April 2025.

You should be able to livestream the arguments from the SCOTUS website starting at 10am ET (though it may start a little later). SCOTUS blog has a liveblog which should cover most of the legal arguments, but if you want to follow the economic arguments there are several people you can follow on Twitter, such as Scott Lincicome and Phil Magness (you can follow me too).
