Trump’s party has a majority of 53-47 in the Senate – many Democrats and Republicans are now against sweeping new duties imports
A US Senate bill requiring Congress’s approval for new duties, won the support of four Republicans on Friday, on the second day of the crisis on the Stock Exchange fired by President Donald Trump’s move to impose sweeping new taxes.
US Republican Senators Lisa Markovsky; from Alaska, Mitch from the kettle, Jerry Moran by Kansas and Tom Tilis From North Carolina, they participated as co -workers of a bill introduced on Thursday by the Republican Chuck Grasley from Iowa and Democratic Maria Candwell by Washington, which will end the new US tariff checks.
It is not clear whether the bill is likely to be approved, let alone being voted on, in the Senate, where Trump’s party has a majority of 53-47 and many democrats and Republicans are now against Trump’s movement, which according to economists will increase prices and cause prices.
“Every state has unique industries that are otherwise influenced by changes in world markets and commercial policies, such as Georgia, automotive and aircraft production‘Moran said in a statement to Reuters on Friday. “The Constitution gives Congress the power to make decisions on foreign trade, including duties.”
This was the latest reaction of the Senate Democrats against Trump’s sweeping new duties to the largest commercial partners in the United States. The bill was backed by four Republicans and all the Democrats in the room.
So far there is no indication that the House of Representatives, also under the control of Trump’s Republicans, will approve this bill.
In an interview, Tilis conveyed his concerns about duties, which will burden the agricultural industry in his state of origin, North Carolina.
He added that, as the Republicans of the House have heard ‘They have received many incoming complaints’ voters on the impact of duties on his state.
Tilis, one of the three Republicans who will claim a competitive seat in the Senate in next year’s intermediate elections, said that the agricultural industry of his state, which produces pork, chicken and turkey could be hit by the US retaliation.
Tilis said that the Trump government wants to describe in detail ‘A well -worded analysis of her strategy’ in the coming weeks about what duties will achieve. Said he hopes, for example, that the government will succeed a ‘Significant trade agreement’ With an important commercial partner, an agreement that may retreat to the imposition of tariffs to the United States.
Trump in his post on social media on Friday said that “His policies will never change.”
