The failed rule vote means no further action can occur this week, impacting planned legislation. Luna's resignation from the House Freedom Caucus highlights ongoing tensions, as she accuses colleagues of conspiring against her. The House will reconvene on April 7.

UK could see larger vehicles imported that pose 'genuine risk' to safety amid Trump trade deal issues
New cars sold in the UK may become less safe if a US trade deal leads to the adoption of lower US safety standards. Currently, UK and EU regulations are more stringent, requiring features like pedestrian protection and advanced braking systems that US cars often lack.

Experts warn that compromising on safety standards to facilitate trade could set a dangerous precedent and jeopardize road safety in Europe. The UK government has been urged to maintain its rigorous safety measures amid pressures from US tariffs on car imports.

Le Monde: Trump's tariff threat rattles Mexico's automotive industry
Trump's tariff threat rattles Mexico's automotive industry
Donald Trump's announcement of a 25% tariff on car imports, effective April 2, has raised alarms in Mexico, where the automotive sector significantly contributes to the economy. President Claudia Sheinbaum noted that the tariffs disproportionately impact Mexico due to its close economic ties with the U.S.

The automotive industry in Mexico, which employs nearly a million workers and has attracted over €150 billion in foreign investment, could face a downturn that risks pushing the country into recession by 2025. Mexico is currently the seventh-largest car producer globally, hosting major manufacturers.
