Senior Seniorers hired a new cross -party legislation on Thursday to regain part of the power of the congress over tariffs after Donald Trump presented new import taxes and rattled the global economy with comprehensive new import taxes.
The Commercial Review Act of 2025, which Senator Chuck Grassley, a top republican legislator from Iowa, a state state that depends heavily on agricultural exports, and Senator Maria Cantwell, a democrat from Washington, whose state can take part in a border with Canada, obliges to report to the president of congress and to consumers.
In order for the tariff to remain in force, the congress would have to approve a common solution within 60 days. If the congress does not give consent within this time frame, all new tariffs for imports would fail. The legislation would also enable the congress to cancel the tariffs at any time by solving the disapproval.
Grassley was not one of the four Republican senators who voted for the approval of a democratic resolution that was used by the national emergency that was used by 25% tariffs for Canadian imports, which were passed shortly after the so-called “tariff tariff tariff tariff of the president” on Wednesday.
However, the support of Grassley, who is third in the presidency as President Pro Tempore of the Senate, is a sign of deep discomfort that many Republicans have with the efforts of the President to re -enact global trade.
“For too long, the congress has delegated its clear authority to regulate intergovernmental and foreign trade to the executive of the executive,” said Grassley in a statement.
The legislation is modeled on the 1973 Powers Act, which to include the ability of the President to include US troops without the consent of the congress in “hostility”.
“Trade wars can also be devastating, which is why the founding fathers gave the congress the clear constitutional authority of war and trade,” said Cantwell in a statement.
“Arbitrary tariffs, especially with our allies, harm us export options and increase the prices for American consumers and companies.” As a representative of the American people, the congress has the obligation to stop measures that harm them. “
In a rose garden ceremony on Wednesday, Trump announced that the United States would impose many tariffs on many of the largest trading partners and those who are uninhabited by humans. The tariffs unleashed chaos on the world financial markets, as the economists warned that the taxes would increase prices for consumers and companies.
Several countries threaten countermeasures when they digest Trump’s trade war calation.
