Costco Seeks Refund on Trump's Tariffs

Costco Seeks Refund on Trump's Tariffs

Costco, a big company that runs large warehouse stores, is asking for its money back on some taxes it paid.

These taxes, called tariffs, were put on goods coming into the country by President Trump.

Some courts have said these tariffs might not be legal, and the Supreme Court is deciding about them.

Costco is worried that if the tariffs are found to be illegal, it might be too late to get its money back if it waits.

So, it's asking for the money now, before the final decision.

Other companies like Revlon and Bumble Bee Foods are doing the same thing.

It's not clear yet if or how the money will be returned, but Costco wants to make sure it doesn't miss out.
