BREAKING: Senators Chuck Grassley (R) and Maria Cantwell (D) introduced a bipartisan bill to reassert Congress’s authority over tariffs. It requires the president to notify Congress within 48 hours of imposing new tariffs, which would expire unless Congress approves them within 60 days.

COME ON!!!
Slam and lock that barn door now, good planning.
Democracy back in January
A better solution would be to entirely remove the President’s power to unilaterally declare tariffs and have Congress entirely take it back (as the Constitution intended).
We’re supposed to be impressed by this?
All this proves is that all the Republicans in congress stand by the carnage their regime is creating.

Nothing else expected from a WEAK COWARD propped up by Trump/
And the more republicans that start making noise in opposition the better
Silent fascists are still fascists

Lol... too little, too late.
We are not at war. Watching Trump do this, without congressional approval, is INSANE.
Congress, grab yourselves by the bootstraps and DO YOUR JOBS, instead of giving away YOUR JOB.
they are just pretending now
This seems simply a ploy to look like they're doing something without really doing anything. It's a delay tactic.

Maybe you could try drafting something that would be a lil more productive…. Hmmm, maybe IMPEACHMENT paperwork?!🤔
Congressional Republican traitors are hell bent on pleasing their owner.
They are DEI Tariff-Taxes:
The tariffs cover a wide DIVERSITY of products in an attempt to bring EQUITY to world trade with full INCLUSION of scores of countries, even some with more penguins than people—but not Russia!

MAGA is trying to reel him in but he already cut the chord
Elon Musk will have also advised on these tariffs, the closest confidant
The advisors, not elected and not confirmed, have had zero scrutiny in senate hearings for their roles in these disastrous outcomes on America
