The House on Feb. 10 rejected a GOP effort to block votes challenging President Trump’s tariffs — the procedural measure failed 217–214 after three Republicans joined all Democrats.This defeat removes a leadership shield and clears a path for Democrats to force resolutions aimed first at Canada tariffs and potentially others, though any successful House action would still face a Senate and presidential hurdle. Economically, independent analyses cited by reporters estimate the tariffs cost U.S. households roughly $1,300–$1,400 annually, bolstering critics who call them inflationary and politically risky for swing-district Republicans.Politically, the vote highlights GOP fractures and weakens Speaker Mike Johnson’s control over his narrow majority.DYOR.US #Houserejectstariffvoteblock #BTC
