Trump says on Feb 1 he will impose a 10% tariff “on any and all goods sent” to US from Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, UK, Netherlands, & Finland, increasing to 25% June 1 “until such time as a Deal is reached for the Complete and Total purchase of Greenland.”

The statement by Rep. Don Bacon addresses a public issue regarding the President's tariff actions and their constitutionality. It critiques the President's approach and suggests legislative action to restore Congress' authority over tariffs.
