BREAKING — Feb 20, 2026:Supreme Court strikes down all IEEPA tariffs (Learning Resources v. Trump, 6-3). New 10% universal import surcharge under Section 122 effective Feb 24. President announced intent to raise to 15% (statutory max) on Feb 21 — no amending proclamation signed; CBP collecting 10% per CSMS #67844987. De minimis suspension continues under new authority.
Context: The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 on Feb 20, 2026 that IEEPA does not authorize tariffs (Learning Resources, Inc. v. Trump). The administration pivoted to Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 (balance-of-payments), imposing a 10% universal surcharge for 150 days. CBP ceased IEEPA duty collection and began §122 collection on Feb 24. USTR is pursuing parallel Section 301 investigations for longer-term authority.
