Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Ryland Barton. The Supreme Court will hear arguments tomorrow over a broad swath of President Trump's tariffs As NPR's Danielle Kurtzleben reports, the White House is considering what to do if the court rules against them.
At issue is a 1977 law giving the president broad economic powers in cases of national emergency. Trump has used that law to tax imports from dozens of individual countries. The case only addresses one type of tariff Trump has imposed. His tariffs on specific goods like steel and aluminum would remain.
White House Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt said that should the country-by-country tariffs be found illegal, Trump is thinking ahead.
I'll tell you, the White House is always preparing for Plan B. It would be imprudent of the president's advisors not to prepare for such a situation. With that said, we are 100 percent confident in the president and his team's legal arguments.
Trade experts say the president could impose new tariffs under other laws. Danielle Kurtzleben, NPR News.

Chapter 2: What are the implications of the Supreme Court's decision on Trump's tariffs?
Senate Republican Leader John Thune says the consequences of the shutdown are growing more severe every day.
I'm hopeful again that this is the week in which the Democrats will conclude that this is not a good thing. And while they may believe politically that it's in their best interest, and obviously we've seen lots of statements that suggest that, it's certainly not in the best interest of the American people.
Democrats are demanding the extension of Affordable Care Act tax credits. President Trump has largely been absent from negotiations. He threatened to end SNAP food aid despite court orders unless the government reopens. A White House spokesperson says the administration is releasing the funds, but it's unclear how long that will take.
In just a few months, Zoran Mbdani has gone from a long-shot candidate to a national name. He delivered an upset primary win back in June, where voters under 30 had the highest turnout of any age group. Now, on Election Day, he's banking on those voters again. But as NPR's Elena Moore reports, he's also resonating with young people outside of New York.
Mamdani has centered his campaign for mayor around affordability issues, pledging to freeze rents in rent-stabilized apartments, create city-run grocery stores, and make buses free. It's a platform that addresses some of the most pressing concerns for many young people around the country, like 26-year-old Daisy Lupa of Michigan.
A lot of stuff that he is trying to push forward in New York are things that we need even more to in rural areas, and even more in the Midwest. Mamdani's candidacy comes as many young people like Lupa have grown frustrated with the Democratic Party and see Mamdani as a new voice challenging the status quo. Elena Moore, NPR News.
