The Only Body That Can Regulate Commerce And Tariffs
When it comes to crafting trade policy, the president has a shortcut he or she may take, but it still has to be approved by Congress. Whenever a president uses “fast track,” Congress is unable to change the policy, but instead has to merely vote “yes” or “no” to implement it.
Congress is the only other branch of government with the authority to regulate international commerce and taxes, as stipulated by the Constitution.
