Passing the Small Business Liberation Act would provide much-needed relief to millions of small businesses grappling with the detrimental impacts of tariffs. These tariffs have already cost small firms $26 million since their implementation on April 2nd. For many mom-and-pop operations, the added costs of import taxes threaten their very survival. Companies like Busy Baby are facing inventory shortages that could force them to shutter without exemptions. As the bedrock of our economy employing nearly 62 million Americans, the well-being of small businesses must be prioritized over trade disputes. I urge you to support this bipartisan legislation to shield small firms from bearing the brunt of escalating tariffs that jeopardize their livelihoods and ability to generate jobs in our communities.
