Supreme Court to Decide Trump's Tariff Use Under IEEPA

Supreme Court will hear arguments on Trump's use of IEEPA for tariffs, Nov 5.
Major questions doctrine requires clear congressional language for sweeping executive actions.
IEEPA (1977) doesn't mention tariffs, raising doubts about its scope.
Tax Foundation reports $88B collected from tariffs after lower courts ruled they exceeded IEEPA.
If court rules against Trump, reciprocal and fentanyl duties would be illegal, forcing Congress to act.
