Remove unlawful tariffs

To: Sen. Fetterman, Sen. McCormick, Rep. Mackenzie

From: A verified voter in Macungie, PA

April 2

I am writing as a concerned citizen to urge you to take decisive action regarding the recent use of economic emergency powers by the President to impose tariffs. It is my view that this exercise of power exceeds the constitutional limits and undermines the careful balance between the executive and legislative branches. I respectfully request that Congress conduct a thorough inquiry into the legal justification and broader implications of these actions. Furthermore, I urge you to take immediate action to remove these tariffs. The imposition of tariffs not only bypasses the necessary legislative review and debate but also directly impacts the cost of goods that Americans purchase daily. Increased tariffs are likely to lead to higher prices on a wide array of products, placing an undue financial burden on families and businesses alike. This policy, therefore, poses significant economic risks both domestically and in our trade relationships with other nations. Maintaining transparency and accountability in the execution of our nation's laws is essential to uphold the rule of law and protect the economic well-being of all citizens. I trust that you will take these concerns seriously and act swiftly to restore proper checks and balances to our economic policy. Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter. I look forward to your leadership in ensuring that all executive actions are both constitutionally sound and in the best interest of the American people.
