Top Republican leads bill to reassert Congress’ tariff power amid Trump trade war
Sen. Chuck Grassley is introducing new legislation after the president’s “Liberation Day” tariff announcement.
Sen. Chuck Grassley, a senior Republican lawmaker from the farm-heavy state of Iowa, is spearheading new legislation that would reassert Congress’ authority over tariffs amid President Donald Trump’s trade war escalation.
The measure, jointly introduced Thursday with Sen. Maria Cantwell (D-Wash.), would limit the president’s power to impose tariffs. It would require the president to notify Congress within 48 hours of such an imposition and for Congress to explicitly approve any new tariffs within 60 days. The bill also would allow Congress to end any tariff at any time.
It’s highly unlikely this proposal will ever become law. Still, support from Grassley — who chairs the Judiciary Committee, sits on the Finance Committee and is third in line for the presidency as the Senate’s president pro tempore — sends a strong signal about the GOP’s growing unease with Trump’s actions and the party’s willingness to say something about it.

Makes you wonder why a leading GOp senator feels the need to put it out there

Not really. Chamber of Commerce owns most Republican senators.

When a Dem and Rep join hands like this, you better believe it.

Of course Congress will work together for this but not for we the people

If this is a huge bluff by Trump, and we would never know, Trump is a good poker player, then dumbasses like Grassley inadvertently strengthen the grand facade

Farmers are scared of the tariffs, playing to his voters

Grassley has always been anti-Trump behind the scenes. This is his chance to push the GOPe in to get rid of Trump's power and render him rudderles.

Pretty obvious that Grassley’s constituents are farmers and food exporters ….. and those products will be counter-tariffed by China, and other nations.
I don’t fault him for trying to look out for his constituents, but Congress needs to get behind these much needed - hell, required - changes.

Yeah... a group of pearl clutchers who would/will panic at the drop of a hat being able to veto foreign/economic policy.
