Trump Trade Ambassador Dodges Question on Reimbursing Americans for Illegal Tariffs
During a Senate Finance Committee hearing on July 22, 2026, U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer evaded questions from Senator Elizabeth Warren about whether the Trump administration would reimburse American families for costs incurred from President Trump's 'Liberation Day' tariffs, which the Supreme Court ruled illegal in February 2026. Warren cited data showing tariffs cost American families over $1,700 each, with consumers bearing 95% of the costs. Greer deflected by discussing refunds for foreign importers and blaming the Biden administration's budgeting. Warren accused the administration of indifference and of planning new tariffs under an obscure 1930s law. The Supreme Court's ruling did not stop Trump from announcing further global levies.
