In a segment on ABC-affiliate WPBF, U.S. Customs and International Trade Law attorney Peter Quinter discussed how Florida businesses stand to receive a portion of tariff refunds exceeding $130 billion following the U.S. Supreme Court's recent decision striking down tariffs imposed through executive orders.

Quinter, who previously served at U.S. Customs and Border Protection, noted that refunds will reach companies of all sizes—from major retailers like Costco, Walmart, and Target to small mom-and-pop businesses. Speaking to the impact on local businesses, he emphasized Florida's significant stake: "Florida's the third largest state in the country. We have tens of thousands of import companies. All of those companies are entitled to refunds."
