US refunds $22 billion in first repayments of Trump's tariffs in May
US authorities have begun refunding billions in customs duties. This follows a Supreme Court decision invalidating President Donald Trump's global tariffs. May saw $22 billion in refunds, matching duties collected. The government is processing repayments for $166 billion collected under a previous act. However, appeals could impact ongoing reimbursements. The budget deficit has also seen a reduction.
