YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

House Democrats are looking to build on momentum against President Trump's tariffs after lawmakers voted Wednesday night to roll back levies against Canada. The rare bipartisan vote must go to the Senate next, and President Trump can veto the measure, but it could open the door to further votes that would target other tariffs, like those on Mexico and Brazil.

Speaking to reporters Thursday, House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries said the tariff policies must stop, saying "policies led by Donald Trump and House GOP members are actively hurting everyday Americans."

President Trump has threatened lawmakers of his own party who vote against the tariffs, writing on social media Wednesday that anyone who does would seriously suffer the consequences come election time, and that includes primaries.
