Amanda Simpson on What's Next for Brands After the SCOTUS Tariff Arguments
On Wednesday, November 5, the U.S. Supreme Court heard arguments on Trump's tariffs impacting textiles, apparel, and footwear—with justices appearing skeptical of the government's authority to use the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to impose such sweeping measures. In this episode, international trade attorney Amanda Simpson breaks down the oral arguments and explores three critical questions: Does IEEPA authorize these tariffs? What's the refund process if the Court rules against the government? And what are the next steps for Trump's trade agenda and fashion brands?
Amanda explains why any refund process will likely take years to resolve, even if importers win, and emphasizes the importance of supply chain diversity in navigating ongoing trade uncertainty. Whether you're a designer, brand, fashion law attorney, or industry professional in sourcing or supply chain management, Amanda shares steps to prepare for what's next after the Supreme Court issues its decision.
