President Trump's decision to impose sweeping tariffs on imports will significantly harm the U.S. economy and American workers. Tariffs are essentially taxes paid by American consumers and businesses that raise costs and reduce economic growth. Rather than escalating a destructive trade war, we should pursue fair trade agreements that open markets and create jobs here at home while avoiding arbitrary tariffs that make American goods less competitive globally. I urge you to press the administration to end these reckless and unprovoked tariff hikes that threaten to derail our economic progress. We need a trade policy that puts American interests first through tough, smart negotiation - not poorly conceived trade wars that will cost jobs and hurt working families.
