In a major political victory for Donald Trump, the U.S. Senate has rejected a resolution aimed at overturning his reciprocal tariffs, solidifying his economic stance even as the American economy shows signs of contraction.
The resolution—introduced by Democrat Ron Wyden and backed by some Republicans-was narrowly defeated in a 49-49 vote.
Vice President J.D.
Vance broke the tie, blocking further Senate efforts to challenge Trump's use of emergency powers to impose tariffs.The vote came just hours after official data showed the U.S. economy shrinking for the first time in three years.
Critics warn the tariffs could fuel inflation and worsen the economic outlook, but Trump maintains they are vital to counter global trade imbalances.
