- The House voted 214-217 to reject a procedural rule that would have blocked lawmakers from challenging President Donald Trump's tariff policies, with Reps. Thomas Massie, Kevin Kiley, and Don Bacon breaking ranks from the GOP.
- According to CNN's Manu Raju, this decision will "open the door to a flurry of tariff votes," and Democrats now have legislation ready to move to unwind certain tariffs, as reported by Fox News' Chad Pergram.
- The outcome is seen as "a major defeat for Mike Johnson," according to MS Now executive producer Kyle Griffin, with Jake Sherman of Punchbowl News noting that the vote will lead to a flood of resolutions challenging Trump's tariffs in the coming months.
