The Capitol Forum hosted Todd N. Tucker, Director of Industrial Policy and Trade at the Roosevelt Institute, for a conference call examining the legal and economic implications of the Supreme Court of the United States’ recent decision striking down the use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to impose tariffs. The conversation explored how the ruling reshapes the scope of U.S. trade authority, its potential impact on the future of industrial policy, and the broader implications for global economic strategy and the use of emergency powers in trade policy.
