Reconsider destructive tariff policy to protect US economy

The Trump administration's sweeping new tariffs on imports from countries like China, Vietnam, and South Korea will have devastating economic consequences for American consumers and businesses. These tariffs of up to 54% on a wide range of products will inevitably lead to higher prices and reduced purchasing power for American families. History has shown that protectionist trade policies often backfire, triggering retaliatory actions that ultimately harm domestic industries and workers dependent on exports. Rather than reviving American manufacturing as intended, these tariffs risk plunging the nation into recession by disrupting global supply chains and inviting trade wars. Fostering a climate that encourages investment, innovation and fair competition is a more sustainable path to bolstering US manufacturing competitiveness. I urge you to reconsider this destructive tariff policy before it inflicts further economic pain on the very citizens it aims to help. There are better ways to support American workers and industries without jeopardizing the nation's overall economic health and standing in the world.
