Republicans Hope Justices Will Rescue Them on Tariffs

“The Senate will try again this week to rein in President Donald Trump’s tariff regime — even as some of its Republicans quietly hope for the justices across the street to squash it.,” Semafor reports.

Said one GOP senator: “This should be Congress’ call if you’re increasing taxes on the American people through tariff policy. We are the ones who dictate tax policy. This is a form of taxation.”

“The high court will hear arguments next week in a case that challenges Trump’s ability to use national emergencies to impose tariffs.”
