华盛顿,2月11日(路透社) – 美国众议院周三以微弱优势通过一项决议,反对唐纳德·特朗普总统对加拿大加征关税,这是对总统及其所在共和党多数派的罕见谴责。

议员们以219票对211票支持一项终止特朗普利用国家紧急状态对加拿大商品实施惩罚性贸易措施的决议,其中6名共和党人与除一名民主党人外的所有民主党人投了赞成票。

这是众议院的一次重要象征性投票,特朗普所在的共和党在众议院仅以218-214的微弱优势掌权。该决议在参议院通过的可能性很大,尽管共和党在参议院席位更多,但参议院已两次否决特朗普对加拿大加征关税的企图。

然而,该决议不太可能成为法律,因为需要参众两院三分之二多数才能推翻特朗普预计的否决。大多数共和党人一直不愿意反对特朗普的政策。

众议院在一天前通过了一项决议,阻止共和党领袖阻挠针对特朗普关税的立法挑战,当时有三名共和党人加入民主党阵营以微弱优势击败了这一企图。

国会议员们对美国消费者成本上升以及关税对国际贸易企业的影响表示不满。

“加拿大不是威胁”


提出该决议的纽约州代表格雷戈里·米克斯表示,这是为了降低美国家庭的生活成本,驳斥特朗普为对加拿大加征关税所宣称的与毒品相关的国家紧急状态。

“加拿大不是威胁。加拿大是我们的朋友,是我们的盟友,”众议院外交事务委员会最高民主党人米克斯在投票前的众议院演讲中表示。

特朗普警告称,众议院或参议院中任何投票反对关税的共和党人将“在选举时面临严重后果”。

他还抨击加拿大,称其在贸易中占美国便宜。“在贸易方面,他们是世界上最差的国家之一,尤其是在与我们北方边境相关的问题上,”他在社交媒体上写道。

一些国会议员还反对特朗普多次使用行政命令设定关税,特别是对加拿大等亲密盟友,指出美国宪法赋予国会而非总统这项权利。

上个月,耶鲁预算实验室表示,特朗普政府的关税对每个美国家庭的年平均成本约为1400美元。无党派税收基金会在上周的报告中估计,2025年这一成本为每户1000美元,今年将升至1300美元。

特朗普在2025年1月开始第二个任期后不久就对加拿大发起了关税战。2025年2月,他下令对加拿大进口商品征收25%的关税,并于8月签署行政命令,将加拿大商品的关税提高到35%,适用于所有未被美墨加贸易协定涵盖的产品。

这一举措被特朗普政府称为加拿大未能阻止危险药物芬太尼走私的后果。但加拿大政府和美国缉毒局均表示,从加拿大走私的芬太尼在美国街头所占比例不到1%。

  • Vote sends resolution to Senate, but Trump veto expected
  • Handful of Republicans joined most Democrats to back resolution
  • Resolution’s sponsor disputes Trump’s claim of fentanyl emergency
  • Republican leaders had prevented tariff votes for months

WASHINGTON, Feb 11 (Reuters) – The U.S. House of Representatives on Wednesday narrowly backed a measure disapproving of President Donald Trump’s tariffs on Canada, a rare rebuke of the president and leaders of his party in the Republican-majority House.

Lawmakers voted 219 to 211 in favor of a resolution to terminate Trump’s use of a national emergency to put punitive trade measures on Canadian goods, as six Republicans joined all but one Democrat in favor.

It was an important symbolic vote in the chamber, where Trump’s Republicans hold a slim 218-214 majority. The resolution stands a good chance of passage in the Senate, which has voted twice to block Trump from imposing tariffs on Canada despite his Republicans holding more seats.

However, it is unlikely to become law, as it would take two-thirds majorities in both chambers to overcome an expected Trump veto. Most Republicans have been unwilling to oppose Trump’s policies.

The House approved the resolution a day after three Republicans joined Democrats to narrowly defeat an effort by Republican leaders to block legislative challenges to Trump’s tariffs.

Members of Congress have been expressing frustration over rising costs for U.S. consumers as well as the impact of the tariffs on businesses involved in international trade.

‘CANADA ISN’T A THREAT’


Representative Gregory Meeks of New York, who introduced the resolution, said it was about lowering the cost of living for American families, disputing claims that there was a drug-related national emergency as Trump had claimed to justify tariffs against Canada.

“Canada isn’t a threat. Canada is our friend. Canada is our ally,” Meeks, the top Democrat on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, said in a House speech before the vote.

Trump warned that any Republican in the House or Senate who voted against the tariffs would “seriously suffer the consequences come Election time.”

He also took a shot at Canada, saying it had taken advantage of the United States on trade. “They are among the worst in the World to deal with, especially as it relates to our Northern Border,” he wrote on social media.

Some members of Congress have also objected to Trump’s repeated use of executive orders to set tariffs, especially on close allies like Canada, noting that the U.S. Constitution gives that right to Congress, not the president.

Last month, the Yale Budget Lab said, opens new tab the annual median cost of the Trump administration’s tariffs stands around $1,400 for each U.S. household. The nonpartisan Tax Foundation estimated the cost at $1,000 per household in 2025, rising to $1,300 this year, in a report last week.

Trump initiated a tariff war with Canada shortly after beginning his second term in January 2025. He ordered 25% tariffs on imports from Canada in February 2025, and in August signed an executive order increasing tariffs on Canadian goods to 35% for all products not covered by the U.S.-Mexico-Canada trade agreement.

The move was linked to what his administration said was Canada’s failure to stop smuggling of the dangerous drug fentanyl. But both Canada’s government and the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration say smuggling from Canada accounts for less than 1% of fentanyl on U.S. streets.
