Trump To Veto New Bill
WASHINGTON, D.C. — In a bold stand to protect America’s economic sovereignty, President Donald J. Trump has pledged to veto a controversial Senate bill that would limit his ability to impose tariffs without congressional approval.
According to a report from Axios, the bill would require the President to notify Congress within 48 hours of issuing new tariffs and demand a full congressional vote within 60 days. Even more concerning, it would allow Congress to revoke tariffs at any time — a move that critics say puts national security and American jobs at risk.
“This legislation would dangerously restrict the President’s authority to act in defense of our economy and our country,” a White House official told Axios. “President Trump will veto it if it reaches his desk.”
Trump Fights to Keep America First Trade Policies Intact
Introduced by Sen. Maria Cantwell (D-WA) and Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA), the bill has gained limited Republican support but faces steep opposition from conservatives who value strong executive leadership on trade and foreign policy.
This latest move by D.C. insiders is seen by many as an attempt to roll back President Trump’s America First economic agenda—a set of trade policies that have protected American manufacturers, challenged unfair foreign competition, and helped secure millions of American jobs.
Despite the bill’s bipartisan label, it’s drawing sharp criticism for what many call an unconstitutional power grab. The legislation has backing from just seven GOP senators—hardly a sign of widespread support.
Retirees, Investors, and Small Business Owners Take Notice
For Americans over 50, the stakes are high. Retirees watching their 401(k)s and pension funds depend on stable trade policy and strong economic leadership. Small business owners, especially in manufacturing and agriculture, have benefited from President Trump’s decisive action on tariffs — holding countries like China and Mexico accountable.
Senator Cantwell even admitted to CBS’ Face the Nation that lawmakers are “anxious” about the President’s growing influence in trade negotiations. But what many in the mainstream media fail to report is that this influence has been a key factor in America’s economic resurgence.
House Republicans Stand With Trump, Bill Faces Tough Road Ahead
House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) and Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) appear to be standing by the President. Representative Don Bacon (R-NE) has announced a companion bill in the House, but even he admits its future is uncertain.
“If the Senate hits 60 votes, the House will have to look at it,” Bacon said. “But right now, there’s a lot of resistance.”
With inflation concerns, market volatility, and ongoing global unrest, many Americans are looking to President Trump for strong, decisive leadership — not more congressional gridlock.
The Bottom Line: President Trump Isn’t Backing Down
As global tensions rise and foreign economies manipulate markets, President Trump’s ability to act quickly and decisively is more important than ever. This bill may have support from career politicians, but it lacks support from the American people — especially those who understand what’s at stake.
President Trump remains committed to putting America first, protecting our economy, and defending our national interests — and he’s not about to let a piece of red tape from Congress stand in the way.
