[5.8] Supreme Court limits presidential authority on global tariffs — ctvnews.ca (+47)

The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday struck down President Trump’s global tariffs, ruling that his unilateral use of emergency economic powers exceeded executive authority and violated constitutional limits.

The 6-3 ruling determined that the 1977 International Emergency Economic Powers Act does not authorize unilateral tariffs. The conservative majority applied the "major questions" doctrine, asserting that significant economic actions require explicit congressional approval rather than broad executive interpretations of emergency statutes.

Challenged by twelve states and various businesses, the ruling could force the refund of $175 billion. Although the administration explores alternative legal routes, the decision curtails a central pillar of Trump's agenda.

The FDA will drop its longtime requirement for two clinical trials for new drug approvals, making a single study the default standard to accelerate patient access to novel medical treatments.

Commissioner Marty Makary and Deputy Vinay Prasad stated that modern research precision makes the old standard obsolete. The shift aims to reduce bureaucracy, potentially sparking a surge in drug development for common diseases that previously required more extensive testing than rare conditions.

Although the agency has accepted single studies for rare diseases since the 1990s, this policy expansion contrasts with recent restrictive decisions regarding vaccines and gene therapies, leaving some industry stakeholders seeking clarity.
