The U.S. Senate on Tuesday night passed legislation terminating the national emergency declaration to impose duties on Brazilian imports.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -The Republican-led U.S. Senate passed legislation on Tuesday that would overturn President Donald Trump's tariffs against Brazil by terminating the national emergency he declared in July in retaliation for Brazil's prosecution of its former president, Jair Bolsonaro, for an alleged coup attempt.

The Senate passed a resolution Tuesday aimed at ending President Donald Trump’s tariffs on Brazil, with five Republicans joining Democrats in a rare bipartisan rebuke of the president over trade policy.

Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes ruled on Monday to keep former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro under house arrest, according to a court document seen by Reuters.

The rebuke of Trump is largely symbolic, for now, since the House is not allowing votes on measures challenging Trump's tariffs until at least next year.
