Carter statement on SCOTUS tariff ruling

Washington, February 20, 2026

WASHINGTON, D.C. - Rep. Earl L. "Buddy" Carter (R-GA) today released the following statement after the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) ruled against the President's legal authority to enact global tariffs: 


"The Supreme Court just undercut the President’s ability to defend American workers. President Donald Trump was elected to fight unfair trade and stop the United States from being ripped off. I’m outraged by this decision; it's clearly judicial overreach."
