FedEx joins other US companies in seeking a refund after Trump tariffs are ruled illegal

FedEx is suing the U.S. government, the latest company to request a refund on what it paid for tariffs set by President Donald Trump last year after the Supreme Court ruled that the tariffs are illegal.

More than 1,000 companies have filed suit in the U.S. Court of International Trade in efforts to recoup costs from the illegal tariffs, including large U.S. corporations like Costco and Revlon. Most of the lawsuits were already in process ahead of the Supreme Court decision Friday.

FedEx said in a filing with the U.S. Court of International Trade that they have “suffered injury” from having to pay the tariffs and that the relief they’re seeking from the court would redress those injuries.

Tim Meyer, a law professor at Duke University, said each case is likely to have to be tried individually.

that all of these companies seeking rebates ate the tariff cost, if they can prove they ate the tariffs then they deserve the rebate.

Waiting for a country like Canada to demand a big rebate.

But the companies will get the rebate, not the consumer.

If Canada gets a rebate, Trump will demand most of it back.
