Tariffs

Today the Supreme Court made the right decision in striking down most of the tariffs President Trump has put into motion during his second term, reasoning that the power to impose tariffs, like the power to impose other types of taxes, is granted to Congress under the Constitution and not to the President acting alone.

State lawmakers are grappling with a range of challenges as their fiscal outlooks deteriorate, federal tax enforcement wanes (after the Trump administration cut the IRS workforce by 25 percent), and a rewritten federal tax code sends states scrambling to decide what changes they might want to make in their own codes.

His 900-word New York Times op-ed identifies some sensible federal tax reform ideas that would create a fairer, more sustainable tax system.

Corporations have publicly revealed that they are passing the cost of tariffs on to Americans—the opposite of what the executive branch has said is happening.

Instead of discussing President Trump's deeply unpopular tariff policies, House Republicans are making misleading and untrue claims about their tax cuts.

Trump gives a promise, with absolutely no plan, to give $2,000 to every American using tariff revenue.

The tariffs proposed by Donald Trump, which are far larger than any on the books today, would significantly raise the prices faced by American consumers across the income scale.
