HUGE: last night we finally defeated Republicans' rule blocking votes on Trump's tariffs. Our first vote to end his tariffs -on Canada- just PASSED. The vote was 219-211; I voted YES. It goes to the Senate, which previously passed similar legislation. More tariff votes to come.

Trump's tariffs crushed our economy, raised prices, and alienated our allies. Republicans passed rules preventing the House from voting to stop him. We defeated that 'gag rule' last night, and now we're voting on ending Trump's tariffs on Canada. Here's why I'm voting YES:

Yesterday, President Trump's DOJ tried and failed to indict me for restating the law. Today, as we celebrate the win for free speech, I'm putting this distraction behind us and getting back to the real work at hand. www.inquirer.com/politics/nat...

U.S. Reps. Chrissy Houlahan and Chris Deluzio respond to grand jury declining to indict Democrats over ‘refuse unlawful orders’ video

Six lawmakers were investigated over a video that instructed service members to "refuse illegal orders." President Trump accused them of sedition.

Donald Trump’s DOJ just tried—and failed—to indict me in front of a grand jury. We will continue to fight back against their rising tyranny. Don’t Give Up the Ship.

I will not be intimidated for a single second by the Trump Administration or DOJ lawyers who tried and failed to indict me today. American citizens on a grand jury refused to go along with this attempt to charge me with a crime for stating the law in a way Trump and his enablers didn’t like. 1/2

I will be voting NO.

Republicans' so-called "SAVE America Act" would require every American citizen show a 1) Passport or 2) Government ID AND a birth certificate to vote. Millions of Americans don't have a passport or ready access to their birth certificate. This is a voter suppression bill. Plain and simple.

The Employment Cost Index shows continued deceleration in compensation growth in Q4. All metrics of wage growth are slowing even as inflation has gotten stuck confirming that labor demand < greatly reduced labor supply

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govFeb 11(source)

According to annual jobs data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics released by Trump Administration today, the U.S. economy barely added any jobs last year. In the first year of Trump's second term saw about the same total job growth as an average month from previous years.

The US economy only added 181,000 jobs in 2025 which means only 15,000 jobs per month. A historic supply shock from reduced immigration is only part of the picture. Reduced labor demand is increasingly visible in easing wage growth.

The US continues losing blue-collar jobs—year-on-year job losses have hit 170k as manufacturing, transportation, & mining industries lose jobs at a rapid pace while growth in construction remains low

To put things in perspective, this is the weakest annual increase in US payrolls since 2003

At the urging of my office, the FAA is rightfully lifting the Temporary Restricted Airspace. I will again reiterate there is no threat to El Paso or the surrounding areas.

The American people badly need their Congress to show courage, and to fight for them. Let us hope that this small step in that direction will be a turning point, and a harbinger of more action to come. 4/4

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govFeb 11(source)

At the same time, most Republicans again tried to surrender Congress’ power as a coequal branch of government to check a president who is behaving like a mad king. The trade powers Trump is illegally usurping are expressly granted to Congress under the Constitution. 3/

This vote was heartening- a handful of Republicans finally stood up to Trump to put a stop to this madness. Let's hope more join them as we move on to consider measures to terminate tariffs on Canada and other key allies and trading partners soon. 2/

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govFeb 11(source)

This was a very important vote tonight. Here's why. For the past year Trump’s illegal tariffs have crushed our economic growth, hit American families with higher costs, killed the very manufacturing jobs we were told they would multiply, and alienated our closest allies. 1/

Republican rule vote FAILS. Republican leaders just tried to use a procedural vote to continue their surrender of congressional powers to prevent Trump's abuse of tariff authorities. Three Republicans, Reps. Massie, Bacon, and Kiley, joined all Democrats to block them.

Lutnick had said, "I decided [in 2005] I will never be in a room with that disgusting person ever again. So I was never in the room with him socially, for business, or even philanthropy. If that guy was there, I wasn't going." He just admitted visiting Epstein's island in 2012:

VAN HOLLEN: Did you in fact make the visit to Epstein's private island? LUTNICK: I did have lunch w/ him as I was on a boat going across on a family vacation. My wife was with me as were my 4 children and nannies. We had lunch on the island. That's true. For an hour. We left with all of my children
