一名众议院高级助理原本将率领国会工作人员对欧洲进行一次官方访问，行程包括参观法拉利工厂、奢侈品公司以及法国的香槟产区，但在众议院议长迈克·约翰逊（R-La.）办公室突然取消该计划之前，此行已被叫停。
A senior House aide was set to lead congressional staffers on an official trip to Europe featuring stops at a Ferrari factory, luxury goods companies and France’s Champagne region before to Speaker Mike Johnson’s (R-La.) office abruptly canceled the plans.
据美国全国广播公司新闻网（NBC News）周三援引一份行程草案报道，这次为期一周的意大利和法国之行原定于本月晚些时候进行，当时距离中期选举仅剩数周，其组织目的是作为一次旨在考察特朗普政府关税和税收影响的事实调查团。
The weeklong trip to Italy and France, scheduled for later this month with the midterms just weeks away, was organized as a fact-finding mission examining the effects of the Trump administration’s tariffs and taxes, NBC News reported Wednesday, citing a draft itinerary.
在该媒体就此次行程进行垂询后，约翰逊的办公室以日程冲突为由，突然取消了该计划。
Following the outlet’s inquiries about the trip, Johnson’s office abruptly canceled it, citing a scheduling conflict.
约翰逊的高级政策与税收顾问柯特·博利厄（Curt Beaulieu）此前被选中率领该代表团，该代表团预计将包括来自两党的国会高级工作人员。
Curt Beaulieu, Johnson’s senior policy and tax adviser, was tapped to lead the delegation, which was expected to include both senior congressional staff from both parties.
根据NBC获得的备忘录显示，行程草案显示该团将从意大利维琴察开始此行，工作人员计划在那里会见驻当地的美军人员。此后，行程转向了受特朗普总统贸易议程影响的产业。
The draft schedule showed the group beginning the swing in Vicenza, Italy, where staffers were slated to meet with U.S. military personnel stationed there. From there, the itinerary turned to industries caught up in President Trump’s trade agenda, according to the memo obtained by NBC.
备忘录写道：“此行的目的是与欧洲及美国政府和行业官员进行接触，了解有关美国关税和税收影响的情况。”
“The purpose of the trip is to engage European and U.S. government and industry officials related to the impact of U.S. tariffs and taxes,” it reads.
官方国会代表团和员工代表团（分别被称为CODEL和STAFFDEL）是两会议员或其工作人员进行的专业出访，旨在与全球领导人或倡导者会面，以更好地了解诸多议题并建立更紧密的联系。
The official congressional delegations and staff delegations, also known as CODELs and STAFFDELs, are professional trips made by members of both parties or their staff to meet with global leaders or advocates, to better understand a number of issues and build stronger ties.
该代表团计划参观位于意大利博洛尼亚附近的法拉利工厂以及帕尔马的百味来（Barilla）设施，然后前往米兰或佛罗伦萨会见奢侈品公司。在法国，工作人员计划访问香槟产区，并与经济合作与发展组织（OECD）会面，就税收和贸易问题进行会谈。
The delegation planned to tour a Ferrari factory near Bologna, Italy, and a Barilla facility in Parma before heading to Milan or Florence to meet with luxury goods companies. In France, staffers were slated to visit the Champagne region to meet with the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development for talks on taxes and trade.
约翰逊的办公室对美国全国广播公司（NBC）表示，米其林、巴黎欧莱雅和制药巨头赛诺菲也在被考虑列入行程的公司之列。该办公室还为这项提议的行程进行了辩护，称两党的国会工作人员例行访问美国的盟友和贸易伙伴，以会见政府和行业官员。
Johnson’s office told NBC that Michelin, L’Oreal Paris and drugmaker Sanofi were also among the companies considered for the itinerary. It also defended the proposed travel, saying congressional staff from both parties routinely visit U.S. allies and trading partners to meet with government and industry officials.
这次拟议的行程出台之际，正值特朗普的关税在11月大选前引发了关于物价和贸易的更广泛辩论的核心。
The proposed trip comes as Trump’s tariffs remain at the center of a broader debate over prices and trade ahead of November’s elections.
今年早些时候，这位总统威胁要对来自法国的香槟征收200%的关税，此前法国总统马克龙拒绝了加入白宫和平委员会的邀请。该委员会负责监督以色列与哈马斯停火期间加沙的20点复苏计划。
The president earlier this year threatened a 200 percent tariff on Champagne from France after French President Emmanuel Macron refused an invite to join the White House Board of Peace, which oversees the 20-point recovery plan in Gaza amid the Israel-Hamas ceasefire.
