Kevin Hassett, director of the US White House National Economic Council, said on the 21st that if the Supreme Court rules that President Trump's additional tariff policy is illegal and demands a refund of the import tariffs already levied, it will cause serious “administrative difficulties.” In an interview with CBS on the same day, Hassett said that it is expected that the Supreme Court will rule “in support” of the tariff policy. Even without support, “it's unlikely to request a large-scale refund because implementing a refund would be an administrative challenge.” Recently, the Trump administration has spoken out frequently about the prospects for the Supreme Court's ruling on a package of tariff policies. US Trade Representative Greer said on the 10th that if the Supreme Court rules that the package tariff policy is illegal, the federal government can “use” other means to generate “tariff revenue.” Trump said on the 9th that if the Supreme Court rules against the federal government's tariff policy, it will be “the greatest threat to US national security.” After coming to power in January this year, the Trump administration invoked the US “International Emergency Economic Powers Act” and introduced a series of additional tariff measures by directly issuing an executive order without approval from Congress. After the US Federal Circuit Court of Appeals and the US International Trade Court separately ruled that the current administration's package tariff policy was illegal, the Trump administration filed an appeal with the Supreme Court. Currently, the case is being tried in the Supreme Court. According to reports, the Trump administration has formulated a plan to re-levy import tariffs in the event of an unfavorable ruling.
