Tariff pain

To: Rep. Aguilar, Sen. Padilla, Sen. Schiff

From: A constituent in Redlands, CA

April 9

I’m a public school teacher, and I’m writing to ask—please do something to stop the tariffs. They are hurting people like me. Prices keep going up on everything from groceries to basic supplies for my classroom. My salary hasn’t changed, but my expenses keep climbing, and it’s getting harder to make ends meet. I care deeply about my students, and I already spend my own money to give them what they need. Now, even that feels harder. These tariffs may sound like policy, but they’re real in my life—and they’re making things worse. Please fight to end them. We need relief.
