This, plus a similar vote in the House (if it ever comes back into session), would have been sufficient under IEEPA as it was enacted in 1977 to get rid of the Brazil tariffs. Thanks to INS v. Chadha, though, this is now subject to a presidential veto. (I'm doubtful that's in the cards!)
🚨 The Senate votes 52-48 to overturn President Trump's 50 percent tariffs on Brazil. 5 GOP Senators break ranks to vote against Trump: Collins ME, McConnell KY, Murkowski AK, Paul KY, and Tillis NC.

Check out @jonendean.bsky.social's timely article on delegation and the taxing power. Jon argues against delegation to the Executive Branch under the IEEPA, which the Supreme Court is considering at oral arguments on November 5.

Federal Circuit affirms, per curiam, the CIT—"Because . . . IEEPA’s grant of presidential authority to 'regulate' imports does not authorize the tariffs imposed by the Executive Orders, we affirm." Decision is 7–4. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Export taxes, you say? I'm not sure they care, but perhaps they should double check Article I, Section 9, Clause 5: "No tax or duty shall be laid on articles exported from any state."
