WEBINAR: Supreme Court Tariff Decision: Impact on Employers and Next Steps EVENT DESCRIPTION A major U.S. Supreme Court decision is reshaping the trade landscape—and businesses are watching closely.In a recent 6–3 ruling, the Court found that President Trump exceeded his authority by imposing certain tariffs under federal emergency powers.

John will break down what the decision means for U.S. trade policy, how it may affect global supply chains and pricing, and what businesses should be watching as the administration and courts sort through the aftermath.Whether your business is directly impacted by tariffs or simply navigating ongoing economic uncertainty, this webinar will provide critical insight into a rapidly evolving issue with broad implications for the U.S. economy.
