US Republicans "stopped time" wrt responding to the POTUS emergency Tariff powers a full twenty nine days ago. Each day for the remainder of the first session of the 119th Congress shall not constitute a calendar day for purposes of section 202 of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622) with respect to a joint resolution terminating a national emergency declared by the President on February 1, 2025. ~ https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-resolution/211/text?s=2&r=3&q=%7B%22search%22%3A%22%5C%22shall+not+constitute+a+calendar+day%5C%22%22%7D https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-resolutio...
