Sánchez on trade court’s tariffs ruling: Trump never gets tired of losing

May 8, 2026 Press Release WASHINGTON – Ways and Means Trade Subcommittee Ranking Member Linda T. Sánchez released the following statement in response to the U.S. Court of International Trade ruling that President Trump’s 10 percent Section 122 global tariffs were an unlawful abuse of executive authority: “President Trump never gets tired of losing in court. “While American families are drowning due to record-high prices, and farmers and small businesses are struggling to make ends meet because of his tariffs, he keeps doubling down on the same failed, illegal and reckless trade policies. “Democrats are ready to end this chaos. It’s time for Republicans to join us and put their constituents first, not Donald Trump.” Background : Ranking Member Sánchez and Representatives Jimmy Panetta (D-Calif) and Don Bacon (R-Neb.) introduced the bipartisan Stop Global Tariffs Act to terminate the 10 percent tariffs issued by President Trump under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 . ### Issues : Labor and Trade
