Buoyed by midterm gains and citing voter concern over high living costs and inflation, several Democratic lawmakers said they will push to repeal what they called unreasonable Trump-era tariffs. Massachusetts Representative Richard Neal said he is committed to reversing Trump administration tariffs and behind-the-scenes trade deals. Oregon Senator Ron Wyden said he will pursue legislation, once he becomes Senate Finance Committee chair in January, targeting tariffs tied to a potential second Trump term. New York Representative Hakeem Jeffries, expected to be House speaker next year, said tariffs and the prospect of war with Iran are among GOP policies that have raised living costs and pledged to act to lower them.

A union representing about 250 security staff at the US busiest ports agreed to extend contract talks two weeks to Nov. 20, the Pacific Maritime Association (PMA) said. PMA and ILWU Local 26 will continue negotiations; talks have been extended multiple times from an initial Nov. 1 deadline. PMA said it remains committed to negotiating a fair agreement to avoid operational disruption. Reports say a work stoppage at affected terminals could disrupt about 85% of cargo at the Port of Long Beach and roughly one-third at the Port of Los Angeles.
