Legislation was introduced today to rein in the president's power to impose tariffs allowing Congress to remove tariffs imposed by the administration. 

President Donald Trump offered a 90-day pause to many tariffs he imposed on a number of global trading partners, but not China. Stock and commodity prices soared. 

USTR Jamieson Greer told legislators today that President Trump's tariffs are bringing a number of nations to the negotiating table. Meanwhile Congress will consider legislation to limit the duration of trade duties on global trading partners. 

Members of the National Pork Producers Council will be in Washington this week to meeting with legislators. CEO Brain Humphreys says trade and a farm bill will be high on the list of producer priorities. 

Financial and commodity markets took another beating today over US trade tariffs. North Dakota Senator John Hoeven speaks to tariffs and other issues on this week's Agri-Pulse Newsmakers.

As expected President Donald Trump announced reciprocal tariffs on global trading partners this afternoon at the White House. The move drew both praise and scorn from various industry groups and legislators.
