Congress Pushes Back on Presidential Tariff Powers | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

As President Trump’s escalating tariffs rattle global markets, bipartisan lawmakers introduce legislation to curb presidential authority over trade measures. Democratic Senator Maria Cantwell and Republican Senator Chuck Grassley lead the charge, proposing that Congress be notified of any new tariffs within 48 hours and have 60 days to approve them. While the bill faces slim chances of passing—and a likely presidential veto if it does—debate continues over the impact of tariffs on American families and businesses. As global negotiations continue, Republican lawmakers argue that the President needs more time to let his tariff strategy unfold, Capitol Hill Correspondent Erik Rosales reports. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
