U.S. to refund $20.6bn in tariffs to importers

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) said on Tuesday that $20.6bn in tariff refunds is being prepared for distribution to importers that successfully filed claims through a new government web portal established after the Supreme Court overturned a large portion of President Donald Trump’s tariffs.
