A Senate vote to reverse Trump’s tariffs on Canada is testing Republican support

Senate Majority Leader John Thune supports President Donald Trump's authority to impose tariffs on Canada to fight fentanyl trafficking, urging senators to reject Senator Tim Kaine's resolution to terminate the emergency declaration justifying these tariffs.
Trump implemented a national emergency declaration on Feb. 1, imposing 25% tariffs on Canadian goods to address fentanyl distribution crossing the border.
Thune emphasizes the need to address the fentanyl crisis comprehensively, stating that ending the emergency declaration would shift cartel focus to northern borders.
Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich of Israel signed an order to abolish U.S. Import tariffs, affecting mainly farmers while aiming to strengthen economic ties with the United States.
