Battle Over Trump Tariffs Intensifies in Congress
As tensions rise within the Republican Party, House leaders are taking steps to block votes on Trump’s tariffs, particularly concerning Canada. GOP leaders have moved to reinstate a ban on snap tariff repeal votes, fearing potential backlash from voters ahead of the elections. Simultaneously, House Democrats are preparing to force a vote on blocking the tariffs, with key votes scheduled as soon as Wednesday. The ongoing conflict could lead to a significant showdown, as Republican representatives face pressure to either side with Trump or break from him, reflecting a growing divide within the party.
