Divided US Senate rejects latest bid to overturn Trump tariffs
WASHINGTON (Reuters) -An evenly split U.S. Senate rejected the latest bid to overturn a slew of President Donald Trump's tariffs on Wednesday, hours after the federal government said the economy contracted for the first time in three years amid the chaos of the tariff regime.
The measure failed in a 49-49 vote with three Republicans breaking with Trump and voting in favor of it.
