When it comes to tariff strategy, the USTR office has made clear that while alternative tools exist if the Supreme Court were to block the current IEEPA-based tariff framework, the existing approach remains the most suitable for addressing the economic challenges the U.S. is navigating right now. Essentially, there's a backup plan in place, but it's more of a contingency—the administration views the current tariff mechanism as the optimal fit for the situation at hand. This signals the administration's confidence in the legal foundation of their trade policy, even as potential legal hurdles loom on the horizon.
