Four Republicans Defy Trump Even After His Late-Night Threats

Democrats were able to pass a resolution repealing President Donald Trump’s tariffs on Canada Wednesday thanks to the help of four Republican senators.

Led by Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Va.), the resolution aimed to rescind the emergency declaration the White House issued in February to place tariffs on Canada. The Trump administration has repeatedly cited the distribution of fentanyl across the border as a reason for the emergency declaration.
