特朗普政府警告法院：反对关税的裁决将引发“经济灾难”

Core Viewpoint - The Trump administration argues that a court ruling against tariffs could undermine the President's foreign policy, jeopardize recent trade agreements, and harm the U.S. economy [3][4][7] Group 1: Legal Context and Arguments - The Trump administration is appealing a ruling that stated the President does not have "unlimited power" to impose tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) [6][9] - The administration's legal team claims that tariffs are necessary to prevent a "financial collapse" and warns of potential economic recession if tariffs are overturned [7][11] - Experts suggest that if the Supreme Court rules against the Trump administration, it may lead to the refund of tariffs, impacting government revenue [6][12] Group 2: Economic Implications - As of the current fiscal year, U.S. tariff revenue has reached $142 billion, but it only accounts for 3.1% of total federal revenue [4][12] - Economists argue that the loss of tariff revenue is unlikely to cause a catastrophic economic downturn, as the U.S. government has significant debt and the tariffs do not directly fund social security or Medicare [11][12] - The current U.S. national debt is approaching $37 trillion, making tariff revenue a minor factor in the overall fiscal situation [12] Group 3: Political and Strategic Considerations - The Trump administration's strategy appears to be aimed at acting quickly on tariff issues to prevent the Supreme Court from overturning them, as the consequences could be severe [13] - Small businesses challenging the government argue that the President has other means to achieve trade goals, such as submitting agreements for Congressional approval [13]
