众议院议长迈克·约翰逊(Mike Johnson)试图恢复禁止议员挑战唐纳德·特朗普总统关税政策的禁令,但三名共和党议员跨党派与民主党人投票,导致该努力失败。
周二,众议院否决了一项程序性投票,该投票包含一项阻止在7月前对特朗普关税政策提出反对意见的法案。此举为民主党推进废除特朗普关税的投票打开了大门,对政府构成打击。
由于众议院席位优势极其微弱,三名共和党议员——共和党众议员托马斯·马西(Thomas Massie)、唐·培根(Don Bacon)和凯文·凯利(Kevin Kiley)——的投票足以否决该动议。约翰逊目前的优势下,立法推进只能承受最多一票的流失。

参议院已通过至少三项谴责特朗普关税政策的决议,但在众议院通常遭到阻挠,议员们无法就此事进行投票。
培根在X平台(原推特)上发表的声明中表示:“我不希望众议院的重要工作停滞,但国会必须能够对关税问题进行辩论。”
这位内布拉斯加州议员继续说道:“关税对经济是‘净负面影响’,是美国消费者、制造商和农民正在承担的重大税负。宪法第一条将征税和关税权赋予国会是有原因的,但长期以来,我们却将这一权力交给了行政部门。现在是国会收回这一责任的时候了。”
共和党领导层曾认为,议员们应允许最高法院有时间介入权衡。
约翰逊议长在投票失败后承认了自己维持微弱多数面临的挑战。
“要知道,这就是小多数派的日常。我是说,你知道,我每天都需要全票支持,而今晚我们没有做到。”他告诉记者。
“众议院绝大多数共和党人完全支持总统,我们将给予他继续推行贸易政策的空间。”他说。
Three House Republicans cross party lines to block effort to shield Trump from challenges to his tariffs

Speaker Mike Johnson failed to reinstate a ban on lawmakers’ ability to challenge President Donald Trump’s tariffs when three Republicans crossed party lines to vote with Democrats.
The House sank a procedural vote on Tuesday that contained language blocking votes in the chamber that object to Trump’s tariffs through July. The move opens the door for Democrats to move forward with forcing votes to repeal Trump’s tariffs, in a blow to the administration.
With razor-thin margins in the House,three Republicans – GOP Reps. Thomas Massie, Don Bacon and Kevin Kiley – were enough to sink the vote. Johnson can only afford to lose one Republican vote to advance legislation with his current margin.

The Senate has passed at least three resolutions rebuking Trump’s tariffs, but routinely ran into resistance in the House where members were blocked from forcing votes on the matter.
Bacon said in a statement posted to X, “I don’t like putting the important work of the House on pause, but Congress needs to be able to debate on tariffs.”
The Nebraska congressman went on to say, “tariffs have been a ‘net negative’ for the economy and are a significant tax that American consumers, manufacturers, and farmers are paying. Article I of the Constitution places authority over taxes and tariffs with Congress for a reason, but for too long, we have handed that authority to the executive branch. It’s time for Congress to reclaim that responsibility.”
GOP leaders had argued that lawmakers should allow the Supreme Court time to weigh in.
Speaker Johnson acknowledged the challenges he faces holding together his razor-thin majority after the failed vote.
“Look, this is life with a small majority. I mean, you know, I need unanimity every day, and we didn’t get it tonight,” he told reporters.
“The vast majority of the House Republicans agree wholeheartedly with the president, and we’re going to give him the latitude to continue his trade policy,” he said.
