Plastics Industry Association Issues Statement on Supreme Court’s IEEPA Ruling

23 Feb 2026

The Plastics Industry Association (PLASTICS) President and CEO, Matt Seaholm, issued the following statement in response to the United States Supreme Court ruling on the President’s authority to issue tariffs under the International Economic Emergency Powers Act (IEEPA):

“Supreme Court decision underscores the importance of clear, durable trade policy that provides American manufacturers the certainty needed to invest, hire, and grow.

While PLASTICS has raised concerns about tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), we support the Administration’s goals of bolstering U.S. manufacturing. A strong domestic manufacturing base depends on predictable trade policy that enhances competitiveness and strengthens supply-chain resilience.

The U.S. plastics industry is a core pillar of American manufacturing, supporting more than 1.5 million jobs and supplying essential materials, products, and equipment across the economy. We will continue working constructively with the Administration and Congress to advance policies that strengthen domestic production and ensure American manufacturers can compete and lead globally.”
