Reps. Bacon, Khanna will introduce bill to kill Trump's coffee tariff... [View all]

Reps. Don Bacon (R-Nebraska) and Ro Khanna (D-California) plan to introduce a bill to exclude one everyday product from President Donald Trump’s tariffs: coffee.

Their bipartisan legislation would exempt coffee products from any tariff imposed after Jan. 19, 2025 — the day before Trump came into office, according to draft legislation obtained by The Washington Post. That exemption would apply to roasted and decaffeinated coffee, as well as coffee husks, skins, and other drinks or substitutes containing coffee, essentially rolling back the White House’s tariffs for coffee products. The bill could be introduced as soon as Friday.
