Senate deadlocks on ending Trump’s tariffs as economy shrinks, Vance blocks future re-vote
The US Senate failed to pass a resolution to end Trump’s global tariffs, with a 49–49 deadlock. The bipartisan measure, led by Senators Ron Wyden and Rand Paul, aimed to revoke Trump’s emergency powers used to impose tariffs. Vice President JD Vance cast a tie-breaking vote to block future reconsideration. The vote followed news of a 0.3% economic shrink in Q1 2025. Despite some GOP support, party leadership ensured the resolution’s defeat, deepening the tariff debate.
