Trump threatens ‘consequences’ for Republicans who voted against tariffs on Canada
Trump threatens primary challengers against six House Republicans who voted to repeal tariffs on Canada, which passed 219-211 and now moves to the Senate.
- On Wednesday, President Donald Trump threatened to back election challengers against six House Republicans who joined Democrats to reverse his Canada tariffs, warning GOP lawmakers just before a Capitol Hill setback.
- The White House justified the measures by saying President Donald Trump enacted a 25% tariff on most goods from Canada and Mexico and a 15% tariff on energy in February 2025.
- A 219-211 House vote approved the rollback, with Dan Newhouse, R-Wash., Kevin Kiley, R-Calif., Don Bacon, R-Neb., Jeff Hurd, R-Colo., and Brian Fitzpatrick, R-Pa., joining Democrats.
- The measure now moves to the Senate, where Trump defended his tariffs, stating `TARIFFS have given us Economic and National Security, and no Republican should be responsible for destroying this privilege`.
- Both Dan Newhouse, R-Wash., and Don Bacon, R-Neb., are not seeking re-election in 2026, and Trump is endorsing a primary challenger against Rep. Thomas Massie.
