Trump to veto US Senate bill limiting his tariff power: White House
The US President would veto a bipartisan bill aimed at mandating congressional approval of all tariffs when those arrive on his desk, the White House has cautioned. The step “would severely constrain the President’s ability to use authorities long recognised by Congress and upheld by the courts to respond to national emergencies and foreign threats,” Trump’s Office of Management and Budget said.
