My thanks to @GeorgetownLaw Appellate Litigation Clinic for helping me bring this amicus brief to fruition. It argues that Section 122, not IEEPA, is the right statute if Trump wants to use of tariffs to address"persistent" US goods trade deficits https://t.co/Gstc0SvVvE

In @TheHillOpinion, Erica Hashimoto (@GeorgetownLaw) and I argue that even if IEEPA permits tariffs (it doesn't), Section 122 prevails as the specific statute targeting specific problem with specific limits. That’s black-letter law https://t.co/aLh2ZRciG4

If the Trump administration wants to use tariffs to fight “persistent” goods trade imbalances, the right statute is Section 122 of the Trade Act, not the International Emergency Economic …

President Trump's recent announcement that he might increase Argentine beef imports to bring down prices for U.S. consumers has triggered outrage from ranchers and their allies in Congress.

Speaking with @POLITICOEurope about China's latest move on rare earths. It's not all stick. There's a possible carrot: "multilateral and bilateral export control dialogue mechanisms." https://t.co/lW8fn1HLrg

Beijing’s rare earth crackdown lays bare the fusion of economic rivalry and national security risk.

Court of Appeals ruling on IEEPA tariffs drew a dissent. Trump admin sees it as "roadmap" for prevailing at the Supreme Court. In my @TheHillOpinion I argue this is wrong. The dissent is a dead end. https://t.co/tcd4liQ6F3

Navarro’s “roadmap” is a dead end.

My piece in @TheNatlInterest on why Trump's Section 301 investigation of foreign ships won't help build a single US ship https://t.co/bHxVbwGwsC

The idea of imposing tariffs on ships misuses Section 301 and will only punish American trade and American companies even more.

In this @TheHillOpinion piece, @J_A_Hillman and I write that Court of Appeals for Federal Circuit and eventually Supreme Court will review Trump's IEEPA tariffs through different legal lenses, but both are likely to rule against them https://t.co/50hWyCGSbd

The Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court look at a case like this through different lenses.

Before Court of Appeals, DOJ argued Trump used IEEPA largely because Section 122 is about balance of payments, not trade deficit. In this @CFR_org piece, Dan Trefler and I argue this makes no sense: 90% of balance of payments IS the trade deficit https://t.co/80Sw6slcVm
