USA Today: World leaders react as Supreme Court ruling strikes down Trump tariffs

Rob Lalka

Rob Lalka, Albert Lepage Professor in Business, was interviewed by USA Today for his reaction to the Supreme Court's decision striking down tariffs issued by President Trump under authority of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA).

"Prices aren't going to go back to what they were before this, and the diplomatic relations aren’t going become automatically restored overnight like a wild dream we woke up from," Lalka said. "America’s reliability as a trade partner in terms of clarity and consistency won’t be the same because nobody knows what tomorrow may bring."
