Congressman Kennedy Statement on President Trump’s Tariffs
Washington, DC,
April 2, 2025
WASHINGTON, DC – Today, Congressman Tim Kennedy (NY-26) released the following statement after President Trump’s announcement regarding new tariffs globally: “Rather than working with Congress to create new jobs, grow our economy, and make life better for all Americans, President Trump continues to gamble with our livelihoods by doubling down on his failed policies. By triggering a retaliatory trade war with our allies, President Trump’s so-called achievement will hurt America’s ability to export goods, further exacerbate the cost of living crisis, and destroy our standing in the world. “Americans and our friends have had enough of these games. Instead of more tariff roulette, let’s work together to invest in our country and make the United States a manufacturing powerhouse once again.” ### |
