The Senate passed a 51–47 resolution to end President Donald Trump’s global tariffs, with Republicans Rand Paul, Lisa Murkowski, Susan Collins and former GOP leader Mitch McConnell joining Democrats. It was the third such vote this week, after measures targeting tariffs on Canada and Brazil. The resolutions would unwind the tariffs by ending the president’s emergency declarations. Co-sponsor Rand Paul backed the effort, while McConnell said tariffs make building and buying costlier. Sponsor Tim Kaine argued Congress must exercise oversight. Still, the effort is symbolic, with the House unlikely to act, though Kaine says GOP defections can sway Trump.
