We had a ruling yesterday that the IEEEA (similar) didn't give Trump the sweeping tariff powers he wanted due to his pretext of an emergency where there isn't one.

Officials say a ‘cautious approach’ will help navigate the risks of higher inflation and weaker growth
Federal Reserve officials signaled concern at their meeting earlier this month that large tariff hikes would push up prices and could risk stoking higher inflation.

“Participants agreed that uncertainty about the economic outlook had increased further, making it appropriate to take a cautious approach until the net economic effects of the array of changes to government policies become clearer,” said the minutes.
Between officials’ most recent meetings in mid-March and early May, President Trump ratcheted up tariffs on most U.S. trading partners before suspending some of the most aggressive hikes.
