The House has voted to slap back President Donald Trump’s tariffs on Canada. The tally offered a rare rebuke of the White House agenda though it wouldn’t actually undo the tariffs without support from Trump himself, which is highly unlikely.

The recent winter surge underscored what students and educators know: school buildings are crumbling and lack reliable Wi-Fi.
That’s why @bobbyscott.house.gov & @norcross.house.gov introduced the Rebuild America’s Schools Act to invest in safe facilities, modern infrastructure and broadband.
