I am your constituent and I want to remind you that Congress has the power to stop the Trump tariffs. They are an unfair tax on all of us. I am especially concerned that 69% of all medical devices used in the U.S. are imported. Most drugs and the ingredients for drugs are made overseas. Everyday hospital staples are often sourced globally. Items like surgical gloves, syringes, gowns, and masks frequently come from overseas suppliers. Trump is jacking prices for all of those and will make medical care unaffordable for so many of us. Hospitals and surgery centers already operating on thin margins and many, especially in rural areas won’t survive. CUT IT OUT AND DO YOUR JOB AND PROTECT US - CANCEL THE TRUMP TARIFFS.
