Um,
podcast-host
Just
podcast-host
Can I just get a clarification of your answer, which is you agree if the word tariff were in the statute, that would be acceptable and constitutionally permissible, correct?
podcast-host
this case.
podcast-host
But the general point is yes, Congress you said it's assigned to Congress, but Congress can
podcast-host
grant authority to presidents to impose tariffs as a general proposition.
podcast-host
Okay.
podcast-host
So we have to figure out then re what regulate importation means.
podcast-host
And you've heard my questions.
podcast-host
If th if this statute came out of nowhere in nineteen seventy seven, uh I think your case would be, you know
podcast-host
uh s obviously stronger.
podcast-host
We have to figure out at least I want to figure out what the Nixon precedent stands for.
podcast-host
And what Algonquin stands for.
podcast-host
On the Nixon precedent, the question is, I think, was Congress aware of that, meaning that when they used regulate importation and it's now being used to encompass tariffs, that's not unheralded because Congress was well aware.
podcast-host
President Nixon announced those tariffs in a nationwide primetime speech, ten percent.
podcast-host
Uh across the board in August nineteen seventy one.
podcast-host
It was not some kind of little piece of paper.
podcast-host
So it was well known.
podcast-host
The question then is was Congress why didn't they change the language?
podcast-host
Why didn't they say regulate but not tariffs?
