The article reports that the House voted 219-211 to terminate the national emergency that allowed Donald Trump to impose tariffs on Canadian imports, effectively repealing the Canada tariffs. Six Republicans—Don Bacon, Brian Fitzpatrick, Jeff Hurd, Kevin Kiley, Thomas Massie, and Dan Newhouse—joined nearly all Democrats in supporting the repeal, marking a significant GOP break with Trump’s trade policy. the tariffs had been raised to 35% in july to address cross-border drug trafficking and trade disputes, and the national emergency was established last February to justify those measures. As the vote concluded, Trump criticized Republicans who opposed the tariffs in a Truth Social post, while one Democrat, Jared Golden, was the sole member of his party to oppose the repeal. The article notes that the Senate previously voted on a separate bill to repeal Canada’s tariffs, but differences between the two measures mean the upper chamber would need to pass the House’s legislation to send it to Trump, who would likely veto any repeal.
Who are the six Republicans who voted against Trump’s Canada tariffs?
In a House vote to repeal President Donald Trump’s tariffs on Canada, six Republicans joined nearly all Democrats in voting to end the national emergency the president declared on America’s northern neighbor last year.
The 219-211 vote to terminate the national emergency, established last February, that allowed Trump to impose 25% tariffs on imports from Canada, marked a significant GOP defection on trade. Reps. Don Bacon (R-NE), Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA), Jeff Hurd (R-CO), Kevin Kiley (R-CA), Thomas Massie (R-KY), and Dan Newhouse (R-WA) all voted to repeal the tariffs.
The resolution was introduced by Rep. Gregory Meeks (D-NY).
The tariffs, upped to 35% in July, on many Canadian imports, were necessary to address cross-border drug trafficking and trade disputes, the White House said.
As the vote concluded, Trump took to Truth Social to warn Republicans of the consequences of voting against the tariffs.
“Any Republican, in the House or the Senate, that votes against TARIFFS will seriously suffer the consequences come Election time, and that includes Primaries!” Trump said.
One Democrat, Rep. Jared Golden (D-ME), was the sole member of his party to oppose the repeal.
Bacon has frequently positioned himself as a center-right lawmaker willing to challenge Trump, particularly on foreign policy and executive reach. He previously criticized Trump’s rhetoric and even said he would consider impeaching the president if he were to invade Greenland.
Fitzpatrick has often carved out a bipartisan lane and distances himself from Trump on certain policy matters. The congressman from Pennsylvania is seeking reelection in the 2026 midterm elections, and his district tends to be highly competitive, with four Democrats having entered the race against him.
Hurd, a freshman lawmaker, has signaled a more traditional conservative approach to governance, including concerns about constitutional limits on executive power. His vote reflects a willingness to diverge from Trump’s trade strategy early in his tenure.
Kiley has occasionally bucked GOP leadership on procedural matters and previously voted against a House rule that would have blocked consideration of tariff repeal measures.
Massie is one of Trump’s most consistent Republican critics in the House. The Kentucky congressman has repeatedly clashed with Trump over federal spending, emergency powers, and the scope of executive authority, including during Trump’s first term.
HOUSE VOTES TO REPEAL TRUMP’S CANADA TARIFFS
Newhouse is one of two remaining House Republicans who voted to impeach Trump after the Jan. 6, 2026, Capitol attack. He has been an outspoken critic of Trump’s immigration enforcement agenda and said, “We have to show humanity.”
The Senate voted on a separate bill to repeal Canada’s tariffs last year. The two bills have significant differences, so the upper chamber would need to take up and pass Wednesday’s legislation to send it to Trump’s desk. Trump would likely veto any legislation to repeal tariffs.
