在一场共和党领导层极力避免的投票中,六位共和党议员向总统唐纳德·特朗普发出了明确信息:他们不支持他将其作为第二任期核心内容的关税制度。
六位共和党议员与民主党人共同投票,实际上撤销了总统对加拿大的关税,这是数月来共和党内部对总统贸易战感到震惊的高潮——这场贸易战甚至让国会中一些最坚定的支持者也感到不安。
这次投票引发了特朗普的威胁,他在Truth Social上警告称,任何投票反对其关税的共和党人都将面临后果,包括初选挑战。

但这不会是特朗普最后一次面临关税投票难题:民主党人已成功获得程序性权力,迫使在未来几周内进行更多投票,包括对总统对墨西哥的关税以及所谓的“解放日”关税的投票。
这是共和党罕见的叛逃事件,尽管特朗普仍牢牢控制着该党——即使国会的优势极为微弱。但最近几天,议长迈克·约翰逊和特朗普的立法团队未能说服党内足够多的议员阻止民主党主导的投票。
议长迈克·约翰逊声称,总统唐纳德·特朗普“并不”对那些投票限制其关税行政权力的众议院共和党人感到“不满”。“他没有生气。我刚从白宫出来。他明白正在发生什么。这不会影响或改变他的政策。如果这些法案送到他那里,他可以否决。”他告诉CNN。
但片刻之后,总统在Truth Social上发表了帖子。
“任何在众议院或参议院中投票反对关税的共和党人,在选举时都将严重遭受后果,这包括初选!”特朗普部分写道。
与民主党人共同投票取消关税的六位共和党议员是:众议员托马斯·马西、唐·培根、凯文·基利、杰夫·赫德、布莱恩·菲茨帕特里克和丹·纽豪斯。
赫德告诉CNN,他所在选区的农民和钢铁制造商受到了关税的影响,“归根结底,我审视了宪法,考虑了对我选区最有利的因素,然后投了票。这并不容易,但这是正确的做法,我支持这个决定。”
当被问及是否担心特朗普的愤怒时,赫德回应道:“我做正确的事,至于会有什么后果,我们拭目以待。”
纽豪斯在本届任期结束后将退出华盛顿州的席位,他告诉CNN,他也是在考虑其选民的利益,指出他所在州与加拿大有着密切的贸易关系。
他说,“绝对”特朗普的关税伤害了他的州,因为“化肥、设备以及许多农业生产者或农民所需的投入品价格上涨”。
周三早些时候,培根暗示多达30名共和党人可能会加入他的行列反对关税。但随着共和党领导层办公室和白宫的压力升级,最终人数远低于许多共和党人预期的数字。
参议院已经通过了一项类似的法案,取消特朗普对加拿大的关税——与大多数法案不同,该法案只需简单多数即可通过,无需60票。
但即使参议院同意众议院的这项法案,特朗普仍有权否决。众议院未能获得足够的票数——需要众议院三分之二的多数——来保护对否决的推翻。
周三晚上晚些时候,议长约翰逊淡化了此次投票,称其为“徒劳的行动”,尽管他表示对结果“感到失望”。
“我对这次投票感到失望,但总统有否决权,而且参众两院都没有三分之二的多数票来推翻否决,所以最终政策不会改变,”他告诉记者。
当被问及总统在Truth Social上威胁投票撤销关税的共和党人的帖子时,他拒绝置评。
对一些共和党人来说,这次投票不仅是推动反对特朗普关税的机会,也是重申近几个月有所削弱的国会权威的机会。
内布拉斯加州直言不讳的培根议员将于本届任期结束后退休,他告诉CNN,他是一名支持自由贸易的共和党人,反对这种干预。但他也认为,决定关税问题是国会的职责,而不是白宫的职责。
“他需要知道我们不是橡皮图章,”培根谈到他支持该法案的原因时说。他还表示,他与许多持相同观点但不愿发声的共和党人进行过交谈。
“从我的角度来看,人们觉得自己进退两难,因为他们不想惹总统不快,”培根说。

In a vote that GOP leaders fought hard to avoid, a half dozen Republicans sent a blunt message to President [Donald Trump] that they do not support the tariff regime that he has made the centerpiece of his second term.
Six Republicans joined with Democrats in the vote to effectively repeal the president’s tariffs on Canada, the culmination of months of consternation in the GOP over the president’s trade war that has quietly rattled even some of his staunchest loyalists in Congress.
The vote provoked a threat from Trump, who took to Truth Social to warn of consequences for any Republican who votes against his tariffs, including primary challenges.

But it won’t be the last tough tariffs vote for Trump: Democrats have successfully unlocked a procedural power to force more votes, including on the president’s tariffs on Mexico and his so-called “liberation day” tariffs in the coming weeks.
It’s a rare instance of GOP defections at a time when Trump still maintains a strong grip over the party — even with [Congress’ narrow margins]. But in recent days, Speaker Mike Johnson and Trump’s legislative team failed to convince enough in their party to block the Democratic-led vote.
Speaker Mike Johnson claimed President Donald Trump was “not upset” with House Republicans who have voted to curb his executive authority on tariffs. “He’s not upset. I just left the White House. He understands what’s going on. It’s not going to affect or change his policy. He can veto these things if they come to it,” he told CNN.
But moments later the president posted on Truth Social.
“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 wrote in part.
The six Republicans who voted with Democrats in the bid to cancel the tariffs were: Reps. Thomas Massie, Don Bacon, Kevin Kiley, Jeff Hurd, Brian Fitzpatrick and Dan Newhouse.
Hurd told CNN that farmers and steel manufacturers in his district have been impacted by the tariffs, and “at the end of the day, I looked at the Constitution, I looked at what was in the best interest of my district, and I took the vote. It’s not easy, but it’s the right thing and I stand by it.”
Pressed on if he’s worried about Trump’s wrath, Hurd responded, “I do the right thing, and what the consequences are, we’ll have to see.”
Newhouse, who is retiring from his Washington seat after this term, told CNN he was also looking out for his constituents’ interests, noting the close trade relationship his state has with Canada.
He said “absolutely” Trump’s tariffs have hurt his state because prices have gone up on “fertilizer, equipment, a lot of the inputs and agricultural producers or farmers need.”
Earlier Wednesday, Bacon suggested that as many as 30 Republicans could join him in blocking the tariffs. But as pressure from GOP leadership offices and the White House escalated, the final number was far lower than many Republicans had been expecting.
The Senate has already passed a similar measure to cancel Trump’s tariffs on Canada, which — unlike most measures — can be passed with a simple majority rather than 60 votes.
But even if the Senate does agree to this same House measure, Trump would still have the power to veto it. The House did not secure enough votes — which requires two-thirds of the chamber — to protect a veto override.
Speaker Johnson later Wednesday evening downplayed the vote as a “fruitless exercise,” even while he said he was “disappointed” in the result.
“I’m disappointed in the vote, but the president has veto power, and there’s not a two-thirds majority in both chambers to override the veto, so it’s not going to change the policy in the end anyway,” he told reporters.
He declined to comment on the president’s Truth Social post threatening Republicans who vote to repeal tariffs.
For some Republicans, the vote was not only a chance to push back on Trump’s tariffs, but to reassert some of Congress’ authority that has been diminished in recent months.
Bacon, an outspoken Nebraskan who is retiring this term, told CNN that he’s a free-trade Republican who opposes this kind of intervention. But he also believes it’s Congress’ duty to make the call on tariffs, not the White House.
“He needs to know that we’re not a rubberstamp,” Bacon said of his reasons for supporting the measure. And he said he’s spoken with many Republicans who agree but have been reticent to speak out.
“From my vantage point, people feel like they’re in between a rock or a hard place because they don’t want to get on the bad side of the president,” Bacon said.
