Temporary Pause on Tariffs Isn’t Enough: We Need Strategy & Stability

39 so far! Help us get to 50 signers!

President Trump’s 90-day tariff pause is a delay, not a solution. It lacks a long-term strategy, signals to businesses and families that instability is coming, and hurts the economy. Unpredictable policymaking causes businesses to freeze investments and rethink hiring, raising the risk of a recession. The Federal Reserve warns that erratic tariff policies contribute to ongoing inflation. JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon cautions that the current approach could push the country into a recession. These experts call for thoughtful, steady leadership. Tariffs should be negotiated strategically, not imposed or paused as a campaign tactic. The American people deserve steady leadership. Congress has the authority to create evidence-based, stable trade policy that benefits the country. Reclaim that responsibility and avoid a rollercoaster of economic uncertainty.
