Trump Fights Against Returning Collected Tariffs

Arlington, VA, June 16, 2026—”President Donald Trump is launching a new effort to try to avoid paying back billions of dollars worth of tariffs he illegally collected. Legal watchers say there’s a chance the White House effort could succeed,” reports Politico.

This follows the Supreme Court’s invalidation of the global tariffs and a federal trade-court judge ordering the Trump administration to start refunding the more than $130 billion it collected.
