Willfully powerless.
Via Sahil Kapur:
House voted 216-215 to adopt this rule 👇
This is big: House Republicans tucked language into the budget res “rule” that bans the House from voting to terminate Trump’s emergency declaration used to impose tariffs. TL;DR lawmakers who vote for this are officially giving up their power to revoke his tariffs until October.
