Treasury Secretary Praises Trump’s Tariff Policies Ahead of Supreme Court Decision

As financial markets await a pivotal Supreme Court decision regarding several tariffs, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has voiced strong support for President Donald Trump’s trade measures. During a Thursday address to the Economic Club of Minnesota, Bessent emphasized that Trump’s deliberate implementation of tariffs has motivated both domestic and international companies to channel investments into the United States.

Bessent also highlighted that business executives are responding to the administration’s initiatives by expanding their workforce and establishing new manufacturing facilities across the country. His comments come just before the Supreme Court is set to reconvene and potentially issue a significant ruling on the matter.
