The court’s ruling means the government may have to pay back duties it has already collected. “Anybody that has had to pay tariffs so far will be able to get them refunded,” said Ilya Somin, a law professor at George Mason University who argued a case against the tariffs brought by small businesses.

FYI - DOGE is using private information to go directly into the accounts of social security beneficiaries to take funds. They marked an 82-year old man as deceased and took his payments. He is not dead. Check on your grandparents. Check the Seattle Times for the info.
