Democratic Senator Ron Wyden said Tuesday he will force a vote on repealing the sweeping global tariffs Donald Trump announced last week, testing political support for the president’s trade war.
The Democrat’s gambit will require his Republican colleagues to take a public stand on a tariff offensive that has roiled financial markets for days and raised fears of a recession. GOP senators are showing signs of unease as they are torn between loyalty to the president and anxiety over potential economic damage.
