House Republicans have blocked a Democratic attempt to force a vote on Donald Trump's tariffs, as the President intensifies trade tensions with Canada by increasing steel and aluminum tariffs to 50%. This maneuver aims to shield Republican lawmakers from political fallout related to the tariffs, which have contributed to market volatility. The action comes after Representative Gregory Meeks sought to terminate the national emergency enabling these tariffs, but such a vote is now contingent on approval from GOP leaders.
