Josh Shapiro on Free Trade

 

 


Trump's tariffs are hurting Americans

The thing about the tariffs is [Trump is] doing it in a way that is hurting the American people, hurting our farmers, hurting consumers, hurting our small businesses. We know that. By the way, the president knows that. That's why he offered a bailout to our farmers. He acknowledged the fact that his policies are hurting Pennsylvanians, hurting Americans. I wish he would just adhere to the Supreme Court's ruling and stop the pain for the American people.

Describes Trump's tariffs as a "disastrous, reckless policy"

A few hours before President Donald Trump's announcements of another round on tariffs, Gov. Josh Shapiro described it as a "disastrous, reckless policy."

"I'm mindful that we are here today in Bethlehem, on the same day that the federal government is about to impose massive tariffs across the board, and I'm worried about the impacts on Pennsylvania businesses once those tariffs hit and other countries then hit us back with retaliatory tariffs," Shapiro said.
