Lawmakers from both major U.S. political parties are actively working to address President Donald Trump's recent tariffs, with many Republicans joining Democrats in opposition due to concerns about their impact on the economy and global trade relationships. Critics argue that the tariffs represent a significant shift toward protectionist policies, potentially undermining established trade systems and echoing economic practices from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. In response, Congress is considering legislative measures to limit the executive branch's authority over such policies, highlighting bipartisan concern over the long-term consequences for domestic and international economic stability.
