I’m writing to demand that Congress act to repeal Trump’s tariffs. I sell wine and spirits, mostly imported, several by me. These tariffs are an absolute disaster for importers, retailer and CONSUMERS! This tax on American consumers has zero upside for our domestic winemakers. Reach out if you would like me to explain the dynamics. No matter how Trump tries to package his trade war, everyone from chief financial officers to everyday Americans is feeling the effects of his economic chaos. Trump’s erratic trade policies are raising operating costs for businesses — who are passing them along to consumers. A new study from the Yale Budget Lab reveals the average household will pay $2,800 more per year because of Trump. A new report from Goldman Sachs estimates that 70% of tariff costs will be paid for by consumers. This is unsustainable! We are already paying the price at the grocery store and soon could pay even more. Beef prices are hitting record highs, and orange juice prices are set to rise by as much as 25%. Trump’s tariffs are devastating us! Congress has the power to stop this any time, and they must. Reclaim your constitutional power and stop Trump’s import taxes now!
