The Tariff Tussle: A Burlington-Based Cycling Company’s Role in the Ongoing Legal Battle

The U.S. Court of International Trade has issued a ruling overturning most of the Trump Administration's tariffs on imported goods from almost all countries.

Terry Precision Cycling, a Burlington-based women's cycling apparel company, was one of five small businesses that sued the Trump Administration in the U.S. Court of International Trade.

The company was founded in upstate New York almost half a century ago and relocated to Vermont in 2009 after being purchased by former Vermont Teddy Bear CEO Liz Robert.

The lawsuit argued that President Trump exceeded his authority when invoking emergency powers to impose sweeping tariffs on imported goods from almost all countries.

The court ultimately ruled that the tariffs were an overreach of executive power and blocked most of the administration's tariffs.

Terry Precision Cycling was one of the two businesses that convincingly demonstrated it had been harmed by the Trump Administration's tariffs, and the company played a significant role in the court's decision.

The decision has significant implications for the economy and businesses, particularly those in the manufacturing sector.

The tariffs have had a significant impact on the economy, particularly on small businesses and the manufacturing sector, causing a sense of predictability to return to businesses.

The Vermont Attorney General's Office praised the court's decision, calling it a "huge victory" for the state and the country.

Terry Precision Cycling will continue to fight the tariffs, both in the courts and through advocacy efforts, saying "we're not giving up" on their business and the rights of other small businesses.
