A growing number of Republican lawmakers are pushing back against former President Donald Trump's aggressive tariff policies, which have recently gone into effect with sweeping 10% hikes on nearly all imports.
While Trump frames the tariffs as a way to protect American workers, critics within his own party argue they could harm U.S. families and businesses by raising prices and disrupting supply chains. Rep. Don Bacon plans to introduce legislation to give Congress more oversight on tariff decisions, signaling a broader GOP divide. Senators like Ted Cruz and Rand Paul have also voiced concerns about the economic fallout.
The debate highlights internal Republican tensions over trade policy and Trump's influence on the party.
