[quote=Anonymous]This is what Grok said: Trump is primarily using the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) of 1977 to impose tariffs in his second term, declaring national emergencies over issues like fentanyl, illegal immigration, and trade deficits to justify duties such as 25% on Canada and Mexico and 10% on China and all imports. He also leverages Section 232 and Section 301 of existing trade laws, which delegate tariff authority from Congress for national security or unfair trade practices. While IEEPA’s use for tariffs is novel and controversial, potentially overstepping its intent, these actions rest on broad statutory powers, though they face legal challenges for possibly violating Congress’s constitutional tariff authority.[/quote]
