The U.S. Supreme Court has scheduled oral arguments for November 5 to address the legality of former President Donald Trump's comprehensive global tariffs, a pivotal component of his economic strategy. This case is a critical examination of Trump's assertion of executive power.

In a previous decision, a lower court ruled that Trump had overstepped his authority in enacting most of these tariffs under a federal emergency law. The Supreme Court's decision to hear this case highlights its significance in evaluating presidential powers.

Additionally, the court will address a separate legal challenge on the same day presented by Learning Resources, a family-owned toy company. This illustrates the extensive impact of the tariffs across various sectors.
