Logistics Management Quotes Benesch Partner Jonathan Todd on Section 122 Tariff Volatility

Benesch Partner and Transportation & Logistics Vice Chair Jonathan Todd was featured in Logistics Management’s recent article, “Shippers brace for ongoing volatility amid new Section 122 tariff.”

The piece explores the evolving tariff landscape following the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to strike down tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) and the administration’s subsequent move to implement a temporary global tariff under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974.

Todd noted that while uncertainty remains a defining challenge for supply chain stakeholders, the newly introduced temporary global tariff — estimated at 10% to 15% — may offer short-term compliance simplicity compared to the more complex trade measures introduced in 2025. He emphasized that awareness and compliance continue to be primary hurdles for businesses and cautioned that additional Section 301 and Section 232 investigations are likely on the horizon.
