Opinion | How Congress can give Americans some relief from the costs of Trump's illegal tariffs Ray Brescia: Congress can pass a bipartisan law to help American businesses and taxpayers recover money lost under Trump’s illegal tariff system.

There's a lot going on, but here's a layup for #Congress: create a system for reimbursing businesses and taxpayers for the illegal #tariffs. Don't go the same way as the #EpsteinFiles and leave things to the #TrumpAdministration. My latest on @ms.now. #ruleoflaw
