Description

This CLE session offers an in-depth analysis of the tariff policies implemented during President Donald J. Trump's administration, with a focus on the significant developments in 2025. Ana Amador, an experienced international trade attorney, will explore the legal frameworks, economic impacts, and international responses to these tariffs. The course will examine the use of executive powers, such as the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), and discuss the broader implications for global trade and legal practice.

Learning Objectives:

  1. Understand the legal authority under which the Trump administration imposed tariffs, including the use of IEEPA and national emergency declarations.
  2. Analyze the structure and rationale behind the "reciprocal tariffs" and the concept of "Liberation Day" tariffs introduced in 2025.
  3. Evaluate the economic and legal impacts of these tariffs on U.S. businesses, consumers, and international trade relations.
  4. Assess the responses from key trading partners, such as China, Canada, and the European Union, including retaliatory measures and trade negotiations.
