Anyone know what legal authority POTUS is using to impose these tariffs? Constitution gives Congress power to regulate trade. Steel and aluminum tariffs arguably fit under national security exemption. But all these China tariffs don’t. Am I missing something?

Replying to @Robertwaldeck
That empowers the president to negotiate trade agreements that Congress has to vote on as is, up or down, without amendments. With these tariffs, there's action without any Congressional vote.
