U.S. Senator Bill Cassidy made a public statement regarding his intention to vote against a Democrat-led resolution that seeks to revoke an executive order by former President Donald Trump. The order aims to curb the movement of fentanyl and human trafficking activities across the northern U.S. border and includes measures to impose tariffs on Canadian goods.
The resolution to repeal the order is spearheaded by U.S. Senator Tim Kaine. Dr. Cassidy, affirming his support for the previous administration's policy, expressed his stance by saying, “President Trump uses tariffs to stop the flow of fentanyl and illegal immigrants across both our northern and southern borders. President Trump is right to do that,” further adding, “I stand with President Trump.”
The issue positions lawmakers across party lines, highlighting ongoing debates about border security and the use of tariffs as a foreign policy tool.
