The Republican-controlled House voted to grant President Donald Trump authority over tariffs through early 2026, with the aim of limiting Congress’ ability to challenge his trade actions, Politico reported Sept. 16.
Republicans secured passage of the bill in a 213-211 vote, following a drawn-out floor fight. House leaders promised to make revisions to the measure later this week to shorten the block on tariff disapproval votes from March 31 through the end of January.
By that time, the Supreme Court is set to have ruled on President Trump’s legal challenge to his tariff authority after an appeals court ruled the imposed tariffs unlawful.
Three Republicans, Reps. Kevin Kiley (Calif.), Thomas Massey (Ky.) and Victoria Spartz (Ind.) joined Democrats in opposing the measure.
