民主党全国委员会主席肯·马丁表示,如果民主党在中期选举后掌权,应采取行动结束特朗普总统的关税和对伊朗的战争。
Democratic National Committee Chair Ken Martin said Democrats should move to end President Trump’s tariffs and the Iran war if they take power after the midterm elections.
马丁在接受NewsNation的布莱克·伯曼采访时表示,民调显示选民认为国家正走在错误的道路上,并阐述了民主党如果在下一届国会掌权应解决的问题。
Martin told NewsNation’s Blake Burman that exit polls are showing voters believe the country is going in the wrong direction and laid out the issues Democrats should address if they take power over the next Congress.
Decision Desk HQ(DDHQ)在选举日前预测,民主党本届中期选举周期有望赢得两院控制权。
Decision Desk HQ (DDHQ) predicted prior to Election Day that Democrats are likely to win both chambers this midterm cycle.
“我认为他们首先应该做的就是废除唐纳德·特朗普实施的关税,”马丁表示。
“I think the first thing they should do is repeal the tariffs that Donald Trump put in place,” Martin said.
为了行使宪法赋予的关税权力,国会在将立法送交特朗普办公桌后,首先需要克服极有可能的总统否决。
For Congress to exercise their constitutional authority over tariffs, they would first need to overcome an extremely likely presidential veto once they send legislation to Trump’s desk.
要推翻该否决,民主党需要达到67票的门槛,这意味着需要说服大量共和党议员投赞成票——这并非易事。马丁表示,民主党的第二优先事项应该是结束对伊朗的战争。
To reach the 67-vote threshold to overturn that veto, Democrats would need to convince a large chunk of Republicans to vote in favor — which would not be an easy task. Martin said the second priority for Democrats should be ending the Iran war.
参议院多次接近通过撤出伊朗部队的决议,但尚未达到简单多数门槛。该决议同样会面临否决,推翻否决需要67票。
The Senate has come close to passing a resolution to pull troops out of Iran multiple times, but has yet to reach simple majority threshold. That resolution would also be subject to a veto and would need 67 votes to overturn.
“第二是结束战争,这场战争正在推高这个国家的能源成本和燃料成本,而此时人们已经经济困窘,感到焦虑不安,”马丁表示。
“Second is to end the war, which is driving up energy costs and fuel costs in this country at a time when people are already economically dispossessed and feeling a lot of anxiety,” Martin said.
一旦处理完关税和战争问题,马丁表示,民主党应推动通过一项议程,解决高成本问题,改革医疗体系,并打击腐败。
Once they tackle tariffs and the war, Martin said Democrats should push to pass an agenda that tackles high costs, reforms the healthcare system and targets corruption.
他表示,如果民主党获得多数席位,将致力于结束许多特朗普政策。
He said Democrats will work to end many Trump policies if they take the majority.
“我相信,在头一百天内,你将看到一个非常积极的众议院和参议院,废除唐纳德·特朗普及其政府实施的许多糟糕政策,”马丁表示。
“I believe within the first hundred days, you're going to see a very aggressive House and Senate to repeal a lot of the terrible policies that Donald Trump and his administration have put in place,” Martin said.
