US Lawmakers Push to End Trump's India Tariffs Over Economic Harm

  • US lawmakers are challenging former President Trump's 50% tariffs on Indian goods, arguing they cause economic harm and misuse emergency powers.
  • Three House Representatives introduced a resolution to cancel the national emergency declaration that enabled the tariffs.
  • Lawmakers contend the tariffs disrupt supply chains, harm American workers, increase consumer costs, and undermine the US-India economic relationship.
  • The resolution is part of a broader congressional effort to reclaim authority over trade policy and improve ties with India.
  • Trump initially imposed and then doubled tariffs, citing India's continued purchases of Russian oil.
