flag The U.S. House voted to end Trump’s fentanyl-related tariffs on Canada, citing limited impact and harm to businesses.

The U.S. House of Representatives voted 218 to 210 to end President Trump’s national emergency declaration and associated tariffs on Canadian imports linked to fentanyl, marking a rare bipartisan effort with six Republicans joining Democrats. The move follows criticism that the tariffs harmed U.S. businesses, strained relations with a key ally, and had limited impact on fentanyl flows. While Canada has increased border enforcement, the effectiveness of economic pressure versus diplomacy remains debated. The Senate now faces a decision, with Majority Leader John Thune opposing the measure and the White House threatening a veto if it reaches Trump’s desk. The outcome will determine whether the U.S. continues its trade-based strategy against fentanyl.
