An open letter to the President & U.S. Congress

Unconstitutional Tariffs and Financial Impact - Where’s my refund?

10 so far! Help us get to 25 signers!

I am writing to express deep concern regarding the imposition of tariffs that were subsequently ruled unconstitutional. Policies enacted without proper legal authority do not merely represent abstract legal missteps — they carry real, measurable consequences for American households and businesses. Over the past year, these tariffs functioned as a hidden tax. Prices rose on everyday goods, from consumer electronics to household essentials. Small businesses absorbed higher input costs. Families faced increased expenses at a time when many were already under financial strain. Regardless of one’s political views, Americans should not bear the burden of measures that lack constitutional validity. When government action exceeds lawful authority, accountability must follow. The financial impact of these tariffs was not theoretical. It affected purchasing decisions, household budgets, and business operations nationwide. Those consequences deserve acknowledgment and remedy. Respect for the Constitution is not optional. It is the foundation of public trust, economic stability, and the rule of law. Moving forward, trade policy must be crafted within clear legal boundaries, with transparency, economic prudence, and fairness to the American people. I urge policymakers and relevant authorities to take these impacts seriously, to provide clarity regarding restitution where appropriate, and to ensure that future actions fully comply with constitutional limits.
