An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Trumps US, Mexico & China Tariffs Will Send Us into Economic Recession: Say No!

40 so far! Help us get to 50 signers!

I urge you to oppose President Trump’s recent imposition of 25% tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico. These measures are expected to increase consumer prices by approximately 1.2%, disproportionately affecting lower-income Americans who spend a larger portion of their income on essentials. Industries such as automotive manufacturing and retail are already expressing concerns about rising costs and potential profit declines, which could lead to higher prices for consumers and reduced demand. Beyond domestic implications, these tariffs risk triggering a global economic downturn reminiscent of the Great Depression. Escalating trade tensions and retaliatory measures from affected nations could disrupt international supply chains, stifle economic growth, and lead to significant job losses. The uncertainty generated by these policies also hampers business investment and hiring, further threatening our nation’s economic stability.
