The House failed to override President Joe Biden's veto of a bipartisan resolution that would have canceled his moratorium on tariffs on Asian solar imports on Wednesday.
The effort fell short of the two-thirds majority vote required to override Biden's veto, protecting the tariff moratorium through next summer, when it expires. The final vote was 214-205.House lawmakers passed the Congressional Review Act resolution of disapproval in late April, followed by Senate passage days later on May 3, seeking to cancel the tariff moratorium.
Both votes had bipartisan support, and the handful of Democrats in each chamber who supported the resolutions argued the White House was allowing Chinese solar manufacturers to skirt tariffs with the pause, injuring domestic manufacturers.Biden declared an emergency using his trade powers in June 2022, protecting solar imports from four Asian countries from anti-dumping duties that are in force against Chinese products.
