#TrumpCanadaTariffsOverturned The U.S. House of Representatives backs the measure to eliminate tariffs on Canada
On Wednesday, it narrowly backed a measure disapproving the tariffs imposed by U.S. President Donald Trump on Canada, a rare rebuke to the president and the leaders of his party in the Republican majority House.
Lawmakers voted 219 to 211 in favor of a resolution to end Trump's use of a national emergency to impose punitive trade measures on Canadian products, as six Republicans joined all but one Democrat in support.
It was an important symbolic vote in the chamber, where Trump's Republicans hold a slim majority of 218-214. The resolution has a good chance of being approved in the U.S. Senate, which has voted twice to prevent Trump from imposing tariffs on Canada, even though his Republicans hold more seats. $DUSK {spot}(DUSKUSDT)
