Mike Johnson Stands and Applauds After Trump Says Congressional Action Won't Be Necessary' on New Tariffs
"Congressional action will not be necessary. It's already time-tested and approved. And as time goes by, I believe the tariffs paid for by foreign countries will, like in the past, substantially replace the modern-day system of income tax, taking a great financial burden off the people that I love."
"Will remain in place under fully approved and tested alternative legal statutes. And they have been tested for a long time. They're a little more complex, but they're actually probably better, leading to a solution that will be even stronger than before."
"Moving forward, factories, jobs, investment, and trillions and trillions of dollars will continue pouring into the United States of America because we finally have a president who puts America first."
President Trump announced plans to continue implementing tariffs through alternative legal statutes following the Supreme Court's rejection of his unconstitutional global tariffs. He asserted that Congressional action will not be necessary and that the new approach, based on Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974, is time-tested and legally approved. Trump argued tariffs have been instrumental in settling international conflicts and claimed they will eventually replace income taxes, benefiting American workers. He predicted continued investment and job creation in the United States. House Speaker Mike Johnson and Republican lawmakers applauded Trump's statements, though Congress must still vote to continue the tariff implementation.
