Episode Summary In this special live conference episode, Lalo sits down with three trade experts at the ICPA Annual Conference to unpack one of the biggest trade law developments in years: the Supreme Court ruling limiting the use of IEEPA for tariff authority. Together, Eric Hargraves, Cindy Allen, and Mark Segrist break down what the decision actually means, how the administration pivoted immediately to other tariff tools, and why importers should not assume refunds are guaranteed. The conversation dives into the legal fallout, enforcement uncertainty, and compliance strategies companies should be thinking about right now, including protests, litigation strategies, and how trade compliance is rapidly becoming a C-suite level issue. If you’re trying to understand the real-world impact of the ruling, tariff stacking, and what actions importers should be taking today, this discussion delivers practical insight straight from the conference floor. Key Takeaways The Supreme Court Limited Presidential Tariff Authority Under IEEPA The Court ruled that the president cannot impose tariffs using IEEPA, emphasizing that taxation powers belong to Congress under the Constitution. The Administration Immediately Pivoted to Other Tools With IEEPA tariffs struck down, the administration quickly shifted toward Section 122 and other statutory authorities, showing that tariff policy will continue through different mechanisms. Tariff Stacking and Complexity Are Increasing Importers now face potential layers of tariffs under Section 232, Section 301, Section 122, and other mechanisms, making duty calculations and compliance far more complex. Refunds Are Not Guaranteed Even though the ruling invalidated certain tariffs, experts warn that refunds are not automatic, and companies must actively preserve their rights. Importers Must Take Action Now Companies should be monitoring liquidation dates, filing protests when necessary, and considering litigation options to protect their ability to recover duties. Trade Compliance Is Now a Strategic Function Trade and customs issues have moved from back-office compliance work to strategic discussions at the executive level, impacting supply chains, costs, and global operations. Notable Topics Discussed • The Supreme Court decision on IEEPA tariffs • Section 122 as the administration’s immediate fallback tool • How tariff stacking affects real duty rates • Litigation strategies and the growing role of the Court of International Trade • Why companies should file protests and protect their refund rights • The rise of trade compliance as a strategic corporate function Resources & References • International Compliance Professionals Association (ICPA) (https://www.icpainc.org/) • ICPA (https://www.linkedin.com/company/icpa...) on LinkedIn • ICPA LinkedIn Group (  / 2429291  ) About the Guests Eric Hargraves (  / eric-hargraves-98a4572  ) A trade and customs specialist with Elliott Davis who advises companies on navigating complex regulatory frameworks and trade enforcement issues.
