Who is Neal Katyal? Indian-American lawyer behind Supreme Court ruling on Trump’s reciprocal tariffs
In a significant ruling with far-reaching implications for US trade policy, the US Supreme Court has struck down reciprocal tariffs imposed during the presidency of Donald Trump, declaring the measures unlawful.
