The tariff is implemented under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974, which grants the president unilateral ability to impose tariffs, but puts a 150-day limit on how long the duties can remain in place.

The Supreme Court earlier ruled that Trump’s use of a federal emergency-powers law to impose “reciprocal” tariffs was unlawful, invalidating those tariffs and casting doubt on separate tariffs placed on goods from Brazil and India.
