Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) has once again called on Congress to act decisively to halt what she describes as economic instability driven by President Donald Trump’s erratic tariff policies, outlining a legislative path to rein in his authority.
What Happened: Over the weekend, Warren posted a video clip on X, formerly Twitter, from her earlier MSNBC appearance with Lawrence O’Donnell, where she criticized Trump’s latest tariff maneuvers as “economic chaos.”
“Congress has the power to stop this economic chaos right now,” Warren said. “Here’s the plan to end Trump’s game of red-light, green-light with worldwide tariffs.”
In the clip, Warren reiterated that Congress could block Trump’s ability to impose new tariffs by nullifying the legal justification he’s using.
“All we have to do is pass a resolution in the House and the Senate, declaring that the particular device he’s using—this fake emergency,” is not valid, she said. “And that will take away his power to do that.”
