# Jeffries Puts Ending Trump Tariffs on House Democrats’ 100-Day Agenda By Riza Dagoc Canonical URL: https://www.tokenpost.com/news/regulation/52420 Published: 2026-11-09T16:32:04.000Z Updated: 2026-11-09T16:32:04.000Z Section: Regulation > Jeffries has named no bill or vote date. A separate bill introduced in the current Congress would revoke some duties and provide refunds. House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries wants House Democrats to act to end President Donald Trump’s tariffs within the next Congress’s first 100 days, adding import costs to the party’s agenda. Jeffries laid out the priority in a Nov. 4 letter and repeated it in a Nov. 8 interview: “We need to stop the Trump Tariffs.” He is seeking the speakership after Democrats [won control of the House](), but he has named neither a bill nor a vote date. A separate bill in the current Congress would revoke newer global tariffs and 50% duties on covered Canadian goods and provide refunds. Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer and Sen. Patty Murray announced the End Trump’s Tariff Tax Act on Sept. 1; Schumer formally introduced it on Sept. 14 with Murray as a cosponsor. Sen. Mike Crapo objected to a request to pass it by unanimous consent on Sept. 16. Jeffries has not proposed adopting that bill for the next Congress. The Supreme Court ruled Feb. 20 that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act did not authorize presidential tariffs. Tariffs imposed under other laws were outside that decision. The White House revised the Canadian products covered by certain duties on Oct. 23, with the changes taking effect Oct. 30. It described those measures as a response to Canada’s treatment of U.S. exports. Tariffs also increased Core Scientific, Inc.’s costs for equipment and materials purchased for non-customer-funded projects during the three and nine months ended Sept. 30, 2026. High-density colocation had become the company’s primary business. It did not give a total for the added tariff costs or assign them to crypto mining. A model last updated Sept. 10 projected an average $820 increase in U.S. household taxes in 2026 under the tariffs it examined. That estimate predates the Oct. 23 changes to Canadian product coverage and is not an observed household bill. Any legislation would face hurdles beyond the House. Ending debate on ordinary bills in the Senate generally requires 60 votes, while overriding a presidential veto requires two-thirds support in both chambers. Separately, Rep. Jamie Raskin, the top Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee, alleges that some tariff exemptions benefited Trump’s political benefactors. In an Oct. 28 letter, he called Trump’s tariffs “yet another tool for grift and self-enrichment.” Raskin requested records on tariff relief, industry contacts, gifts and donations by Nov. 11. ## Links in this article - [won control of the House](https://www.tokenpost.com/news/regulation/48805)
