GOP divided over how to stop Trump's trade wars
Republican lawmakers on Capitol Hill desperately want to convince President Trump to back off his plan to impose tariffs on Mexican imports but disagree over the best strategy moving forward.
Some, such as Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas), an adviser to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s (R-Ky.) leadership team, want to persuade the president to change course through private dialogue.
Others, including Senate Finance Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (Iowa) and Sens. Pat Toomey (Pa.) and Rob Portman (Ohio), are talking about passing legislation to curtail Trump’s tariff authority.
“We’ll be having some meetings shortly to talk about it,” Cornyn told reporters ahead of a leadership meeting as lawmakers were returning to Washington on Monday after a weeklong recess. “A lot of concerns [have been] expressed about the unintended consequences and so I’m sure we’ll be visiting with the administration about that,” he added.
