May 29 (UPI) -- The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit on Thursday temporarily reinstated President Donald Trump's tariffs while the court sorts out arguments over their legality.
The appellate court temporarily granted the Trump administration's stay motion, which reinstated the tariffs in a four-page ruling made Thursday afternoon.
Attorneys with the Department of Justice argued the stay is needed to prevent "immediate irreparable harm to United States foreign policy and national security," ABC News reported.
"It is critical for the country's national security and the president's conduct of ongoing, delicate diplomatic efforts that the court stay its judgment," the DOJ filing says.
