House Democrats Move to Block Trump’s Canada Tariffs Amid Bipartisan Support
House Democrats are advancing a resolution to terminate the national emergency declaration underpinning President Trump's tariffs on Canadian imports. Representative Gregory Meeks (D-NY) leads the effort, which could pass as early as Wednesday with minimal Republican crossover support.
The measure exposes growing GOP divisions on trade policy, particularly among lawmakers representing border states and export-dependent industries. While the House may succeed in forcing a vote, any resolution faces near-certain veto from the WHITE House—setting up another constitutional clash over executive trade powers.
