Story summary
- U.S. Senator Ron Wyden introduced a bill June 17, 2026 to curb President Donald Trump’s tariff authority.
- The bill would strip several tariff tools, give Congress authority, and follows Wyden’s condemnation of Trump’s 50% retaliatory tariffs on Canadian goods as a revival of an old law.
- The proposal faces long odds because Republicans control both chambers and Trump could veto, with Kush Desai saying Democrats are “twiddling their thumbs” and should cooperate.
