Governors from nineteen states, including Connecticuts Ned Lamont, have sent a letter to top congressional leaders, urging new laws to require Congress approval for major tariffs before presidents can impose them. This comes after a Supreme Court ruling that Presidents lack authority for broad tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. Connecticut businesses like Ethan Allen Interiors and Stanley Black and Decker have suffered from these trade moves. The governors letter targets Senate Majority Leader John Thune, House Speaker Mike Johnson, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, seeking firm rules to ensure lawmakers review big tariff actions before they take effect.
