Demand the house vote on tariff canceling

To: Rep. Huizenga, Sen. Peters, Sen. Slotkin

From: A constituent in Kalamazoo, MI

April 3

The Senate just passed a bill to terminate the new tariffs on Canada imposed by the President. These tariffs are unnecessary and harmful, as only 0.2% of fentanyl seized in the U.S. comes across the Canadian border. The tariffs will hurt industries in states like Maine by making it harder for businesses to obtain materials from Canada. Several Republican senators, including Susan Collins and Rand Paul, joined Democrats in approving this bill despite pressure from the President. However, the legislation now faces an uphill battle in the House. I urge you to bring this bill up for a vote and support its passage. Terminating these unjustified tariffs on our ally Canada is crucial for protecting American jobs and businesses from needless harm. The U.S. already has dispute resolution mechanisms with Canada through trade deals that make imposing new tariffs an unnecessary economic disruption. Please take action to advance this legislation in the House.
