周三,美国众议院通过了一项旨在撤销唐纳德·特朗普总统对加拿大加征关税的法案,数名共和党人罕见地与民主党人联手,对这位共和党籍总司令提出了谴责。

民主党人利用一项名为”特权决议”的机制,迫使众议院多数党领袖在反对声中对一项撤销特朗普在北部边境宣布的国家紧急状态的法案进行投票,成功推动了投票。

投票支持该法案的六名共和党议员分别是华盛顿州共和党众议员丹·纽豪斯、加利福尼亚州共和党众议员凯文·凯利、内布拉斯加州共和党众议员唐·培根、科罗拉多州共和党众议员杰夫·赫德和宾夕法尼亚州共和党众议员布莱恩·菲茨帕特里克。

缅因州民主党众议员贾里德·戈尔登是唯一一名在该问题上与大多数共和党人投票一致的民主党人。最终法案以219票对211票通过。

投票即将成功之际,特朗普向违抗他的共和党人发出警告。

“任何在众议院或参议院投票反对关税的共和党人,在选举时都将严重面临后果,其中包括初选!”特朗普在Truth Social上发文称。

凯利在被问及对特朗普的回应时告诉福克斯新闻数字版:”这是一项关于总统宣布的芬太尼紧急状态的决议。根据《国家紧急状态法》,国会有义务每六个月评估一次紧急状态是否仍然存在。加拿大现在已经大幅打击芬太尼问题,因此没有理由再将紧急状态延长六个月。”

与此同时,赫德也告诉福克斯新闻数字版,他的选民”直接受到这些政策的影响”。

“今天的投票首先是基于宪法。第一条规定国会有权规范与外国的商业往来和征收关税。随着时间的推移,国会已将有限的权力下放给行政部门,特别是在涉及国家紧急状态的事务中。但这些授权从未被用作长期广泛贸易政策的永久工具,”他还表示。

“如果我们今天将广泛的紧急贸易权力常态化,我们应该预期未来无论哪个党派的总统都会以我们许多人强烈反对的方式依赖同样的权力。制度一致性至关重要。宪法不会因谁入主白宫而改变。我的职责是捍卫权力分立,无论政治便利如何。”

特朗普于2025年2月签署了一项行政命令,对来自加拿大和墨西哥的大部分商品额外征收25%的关税。来自加拿大的能源产品额外征收15%的关税。

当时,白宫表示此举是对这些国家不愿采取更多措施阻止非法移民和非法药物流入美国的惩罚。

反对特朗普关税策略的人尤其批评他针对加拿大的举措,认为这是不公正地损害美国最亲密的盟友和贸易伙伴之一,从而损害美国人自身的利益。

“去年,关税使美国家庭损失了近1700美元。预计2026年这一成本还将增加,”周三辩论中牵头该法案的米克斯众议员表示。

“自这些关税实施以来,美国对加拿大的出口下降了21%以上。当我回到家乡时,我的选民并没有告诉我他们有额外的1700美元可以省下来。他们要求我降低食品价格、降低医疗成本,让生活更实惠。

“加拿大是我们的朋友,是我们的盟友。加拿大人曾与美国人并肩作战,无论是在第二次世界大战还是阿富汗战争中,165名加拿大人在我国遭受袭击后献出了生命。这些所谓的威胁背后不存在国家紧急状态,也不存在国家安全威胁。”

佛罗里达州共和党众议员、众议院外交事务委员会主席布莱恩·马斯特认为,该决议文本本身将终止与芬太尼相关的国家紧急状态。

“他所在的州每年有5000人死于芬太尼,”马斯特在谈到米克斯时表示。”所以,如果他想回避谁将为他试图结束紧急状态付出代价的问题,实际上,这是加拿大第一次因为受到压力而开始处理芬太尼问题——谁将为此付出代价?将是他所在州多5000名居民。就是这样的人将付出代价。”

他表示,该决议”不是关于关税的辩论”,而是民主党人试图”忽视芬太尼危机的存在”。

该决议数月前由民主党人提出,但被众议院共和党领袖的一项主动措施搁置,该措施阻止众议院撤销特朗普的紧急状态声明。

总统利用紧急状态声明绕过国会就关税问题采取行动,这一举措在国会山引起了褒贬不一的评价。

但该措施已于上月到期,而众议院共和党领袖试图将其延长至7月31日的努力在周二晚上以失败告终,当时有三名共和党人加入民主党阵营表示反对。

“国会是时候对关税发声了,”培根是周二和周三投票反对特朗普政策的共和党人之一,他告诉福克斯新闻数字版。

该法案现在将提交参议院,参议院过去曾投票限制特朗普的关税权力。

然而,即便该法案在参议院获得通过,也很可能遭到总统的否决。

House Republican rebels join Democrats to block Trump’s Canada tariffs | Fox News

By Elizabeth Elkind, Fox News

Published February 11, 2026 6:18pm EST

The House of Representatives passed legislation Wednesday aimed at reversing President Donald Trump’s tariffs on Canada after several Republicans joined Democrats for a rare rebuke of the GOP commander in chief.

Democrats successfully got a vote on a measure to reverse Trump’s national emergency at the northern border using a mechanism for forcing votes over the objections of House majority leadership called a privileged resolution.

The six Republicans who voted in favor of the measure are Reps. Dan Newhouse, R-Wash., Kevin Kiley, R-Calif., Don Bacon, R-Neb., Jeff Hurd, R-Colo., and Brian Fitzpatrick, R-Pa.

One Democrat, Rep. Jared Golden, D-Maine, voted with the majority of Republicans on the matter. It passed 219-211.

TRUMP’S TARIFFS COULD BE UNDONE BY ONE CONSERVATIVE DOCTRINE: ‘LIFE OR DEATH’

As the vote was on the verge of succeeding, Trump issued a warning to Republicans who defied him.

“Any Republican, in the House or the Senate, that votes against TARIFFS will seriously suffer the consequences come Election time, and that includes Primaries!” Trump posted on Truth Social.

Kiley told Fox News Digital when asked for a response to Trump, “This was a resolution regarding the emergency declared by the president over fentanyl from Canada. Congress has an obligation under the National Emergencies Act to evaluate every six months if the emergency still exists. Canada has now significantly cracked down on fentanyl, so there’s no basis to extend the emergency another six months.”

Meanwhile Hurd told Fox News Digital that his constituents were “directly affected by these policies.”

“Today’s vote is grounded first and foremost in the Constitution. Article I gives Congress the authority to regulate commerce with foreign nations and to levy tariffs. Over time, Congress has delegated limited authority to the Executive Branch, particularly in matters involving national emergencies. But those delegations were never intended to serve as a permanent vehicle for sweeping, long-term trade policy,” he also said.

“If we normalize broad emergency trade powers today, we should expect that a future president—of either party—will rely on the same authority in ways many of us would strongly oppose. Institutional consistency matters. The Constitution does not shift depending on who occupies the White House. My responsibility is to defend the separation of powers regardless of political convenience.”

Trump signed an executive order in February 2025, enacting an additional 25% tariff on most goods from Canada and Mexico. Energy from Canada was subject to an additional 15% tariff.

At the time, the White House said it was punishment for those countries’ unwillingness to do more to stop the flow of illegal immigrants and illicit drugs into the U.S.

Opponents of Trump’s tariff strategy have criticized his moves against Canada in particular, arguing it was unjustly harming one of the U.S.’s closest allies and trading partners to the detriment of Americans themselves.

TRUMP’S SIGNATURE TARIFFS HANG ON KEY QUESTION ABOUT CONGRESS’ POWER BEFORE SUPREME COURT

“In the last year, tariffs have cost American families nearly $1,700. And that cost is expected to increase in 2026,” Rep. Gregory Meeks, D-N.Y., who is leading the legislation, said during debate Wednesday.

“And since these tariffs were imposed, U.S. exports to Canada have fallen by more than 21%. When I go home, my constituents aren’t telling me that they have an extra $1,700 to spare. They’re asking me to lower grocery prices, lower the price of healthcare and make life more affordable.

“Canada is our friend. Canada is our ally. Canadians have fought alongside Americans, whether it was in World War II or the war in Afghanistan, where 165 Canadians gave their lives after our country was attacked. There is no national emergency, there is no national security threat underpinning these threats.”

House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Brian Mast, R-Fla., argued the text of the resolution itself would end a national emergency related to fentanyl.

“The gentleman over here, 5,000 people per year die in his state alone from fentanyl,” Mast said of Meeks. “So, if he wants to beg the question of who’s going to pay the price of him trying to end an emergency, that actually, for the first time, has Canada dealing with fentanyl because of the pressure being put on them — who’s going to pay the price? It’s going to be 5,000 more of his state’s residents. That’s who’s going to pay the price.”

SUPREME COURT TARIFF RULING HAS TRUMP ADMIN, US BUSINESSES BRACING FOR IMPACT

He said the resolution was “not a debate about tariffs” but rather Democrats trying to “ignore that there is a fentanyl crisis.”

The resolution was filed by Democrats months ago but was put on hold by an active measure by House GOP leaders that blocked the House from reversing Trump’s emergency declarations.

The president has used emergency declarations to bypass Congress on the subject of tariffs, a move that has drawn mixed reviews from Capitol Hill.

But that measure expired last month, and House GOP leaders’ bid to extend it through July 31 crashed and burned Tuesday night when three Republicans joined Democrats to oppose it.

“It is time for Congress to make its voice heard on tariffs,” Bacon, one of the Republicans who voted in opposition to the Trump policy Tuesday and Wednesday, told Fox News Digital.

The legislation now heads to the Senate, which has voted in the past to restrict Trump’s tariff authority.

Even if it succeeds there, however, it’s likely to be vetoed the president.
