Statement by Distilled Spirits Council President and CEO Chris Swonger on Supreme Court Ruling Invalidating Use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) for Tariffs
“As the administration navigates the implications of the Supreme Court’s decision, we urge them to take this opportunity to secure a permanent return to zero-for-zero tariffs on spirits products with our major trading partners, such as the EU and U.K. The elimination of tariffs on distilled spirits would provide much-needed certainty for American spirits exporters while helping ease financial pressures on bars, restaurants and retailers at a time when affordability remains a major concern for consumers.”
