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. The decision invalidates many country‑by‑country reciprocal tariffs, while leaving sector‑specific tariffs in place and raising new questions about what comes next—including the status of potential refunds.To help employers understand the real‑world implications of this landmark ruling, the PA Chamber is hosting a timely webinar featuring John Murphy, Senior Vice President and Head of International at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. 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.
