R49481 Active Presidential Tariff Actions in 2026: Fact Sheet 2026-10-08T04:00:00Z 2026-10-09T14:23:35Z Active Reports William F. Burkhart   Since the beginning of the second Trump Administration on January 20, 2025, President Donald J. Trump has used various trade authorities to impose tariffs. Following the Supreme Court’s ruling on February 20, 2026, invalidating the Trump Administration’s use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to impose certain tariffs, President Trump has used a combination of other trade authorities to impose tariffs. For example, shortly, after the Supreme Court’s IEEPA decision, President Trump announced a global 10% tariff rate using Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974. This authority permitted the President to levy duties for no more than 150 days barring legislation from Congress authorizing an extension. With the expiration of the Section 122 tariffs on July 24, 2026, the President imposed additional duties using Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1971 and continued to use Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 to impose duties. This fact sheet provides a summary table of the official tariff actions taken during the second Trump Administration that were in effect as of September 30, 2026 or are currently under an active investigation. The table includes a description of each action, the most recent non-amendment Federal Register notice related to the action, the countries impacted by the action, and the latest tariff rate imposed, and the status of any investigation. Actions are organized under the authority used and in alphabetical order by their description. U.S. negotiations with trading partners are ongoing, including the statutorily required joint review of the U.S.-Canada-Mexico Agreement (USMCA). The summary table may be periodically updated to reflect outcomes from USMCA negotiations and other talks with partner nations, as well as implementation of announced framework agreements. https://www.congress.gov/crs_external_products/R/PDF/R49481/R49481.1.pdf https://www.congress.gov/crs_external_products/R/HTML/R49481.html
