ADVICE

Follow Congressional Oversight Actions

The Supreme Court struck down Trump's tariff authority, creating thousands of refund claims and potentially over $130 billion owed.
Lisa Graves explained the court found IEEPA misuse and lower courts must sort refunds across 2,000+ trade cases.

INSIGHT
