Summary

At least a dozen House Republicans are considering backing Rep. Don Bacon’s (R-Neb.) bill to limit presidential power over tariffs, directly challenging Trump, who has threatened a veto.

The bill would require congressional approval for tariffs to last beyond 40 days and allow Congress to repeal them anytime.

Senators from both parties support a companion bill.

Some GOP lawmakers cite harm to farmers and constitutional oversight duties as reasons to support the measure, though others hesitate due to Trump’s influence and veto warning.
