# House of Representatives Approves Rule to “Cede Congressional Tariff Authority” to the President

As the U.S. Supreme Court prepares to rule on whether President Trump’s use of the *International Emergency Economic Powers Act* (IEEPA) provides a lawful basis for declaring a state of emergency and imposing tariffs on nearly all U.S. trading partners — as well as on Canada, China, and Mexico in connection with opioid trafficking — on September 16, 2025, the House of Representatives passed, by a 213–211 vote, a measure that includes language to “cede congressional tariff authority” to the president.

 According to *Politico*, a sufficient number of initially reluctant Republican lawmakers agreed to support the rule after receiving “a promise” that a future measure would move up the expiration date from March 31, 2026, to January 31, 2026. The outlet also noted that “by then, it is likely the Supreme Court will have ruled on the challenge to Trump’s tariff-declaring powers.”
