A RINO Congressman announced on Sunday that he would be moving to undercut President Trump’s bold move to reshape the global economic order with reciprocal tariffs on countries that have taken advantage of America for years.
The Gateway Pundit previously reported that President Donald Trump announced on Wednesday the implementation of a 10% baseline tariff on all imports, effective April 5, 2025. On April 9, the worst offenders will be hit with even tougher measures.
Speaking from the White House Rose Garden, Trump proclaimed April 2 as “Liberation Day,” marking a new era of economic independence. He emphasized that this measure is essential to protect American jobs and revitalize domestic manufacturing.
The White House also released a detailed chart showing how badly many countries have been ripping off American workers, charging high tariffs on U.S. goods while benefiting from America’s generosity in return.
Rep. Don Bacon (RINO-NE) told far-left CBS anchor Margaret Brennan that he would introduce a bill to halt Trump’s tariff agenda. The bill will be modeled after legislation introduced last week by Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) and far-left Senator Maria Cantwell (D-WA).
As The Gateway Pundit reported,, The Grassley-Cantwell bill requires the president to notify Congress within 48 hours of imposing new tariffs. The president must also present a detailed rationale and analysis of the potential consequences for American businesses and consumers.
Moreover, the Senate legislation will require Congress to approve ALL tariffs within 60 days, or they will automatically expire. Even duties imposed on China, America’s most significant geopolitical adversary, would need congressional approval.
“I support the legislation that Senator Grassley and Senator Cantwell (introduced),” Bacon told Brennan. “I have some support on the House bill, which we will unveil tomorrow.”

Bacon admitted that his task to get the bill through the House would face a steeper challenge, particularly since House Speaker Mike Johnson is standing with Trump on tariffs for now and has vowed to block legislation undermining tariff authority from reaching the floor.
But Bacon is betting that the tariffs will continue to send the markets spiraling while inflation and unemployment possibly rise. Should this occur, Bacon thinks his bill will become “very viable.”
“It will be harder to pass this in the House, no doubt,” he stated. “But if we get 60 votes in the Senate, it will put pressure on the House to look at this (bill).”
“If we continue to see the stock market go a certain direction or if we see inflation or unemployment shift in a bad way, this becomes a very viable bill,” he added. It will not pass tomorrow…But this will be in the queue we can use.”
