Three US House members move to overturn Trump's 50 pc tariffs on India

Washington, Dec 13 (UNI) Three members of the US House of Representatives have introduced a resolution to terminate President Donald Trump's national emergency declaration that resulted in tariffs of up to 50 percent on imports from India. The lawmakers described the duties as "illegal" and warned that they would harm American workers and consumers while straining US–India relations.
The resolution was introduced by Representatives Deborah Ross, Marc Veasey, and Raja Krishnamoorthi, following a bipartisan effort in the Senate to roll back similar emergency-based tariffs on Brazil and to curb the president's authority to impose trade duties under emergency powers.
According to an official release, the measure aims to rescind the additional 25 per cent "secondary" tariffs imposed on Indian goods on August 27, 2025, which were layered on top of earlier reciprocal duties. Together, these actions raised tariffs on many Indian-origin products to 50 per cent under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA).
