Tariffs and Tyranny

To: Sen. Peters, Rep. McClain, Sen. Slotkin

From: A constituent in Independence, MI

April 4

I am writing as a deeply concerned constituent to urge you to take immediate action to roll back the destructive tariffs that are wreaking havoc on our economy, damaging relationships with our global partners, and harming American workers and consumers. These tariffs are not only counterproductive — they are reckless. They have driven up prices for everyday Americans, destabilized key industries, and sparked retaliatory measures that threaten our exports and long-term competitiveness. This is not sound economic policy; it is political theater with real-world consequences for families like mine. Furthermore, I am alarmed by the erratic and inflammatory behavior of our national leadership. We need strong, reasoned voices in Congress to stand up and assert constitutional checks and balances. The president's unilateral and chaotic trade policies must be curtailed before the damage becomes irreversible. You have a duty to represent the best interests of your constituents, not to enable authoritarian tendencies or economically destructive agendas. I urge you to join with colleagues across the aisle, assert Congress’s authority over trade, and act to restore sanity and stability to our economic policy. We are counting on you.
