“Since his initial announcement, I have urged President Trump to uphold the trade agreement with Canada that he negotiated and signed into law. While pausing tariffs on automakers yesterday and USMCA-covered goods today is a step back from the brink of an all-out trade war, the damage is already being felt across the nation. Just two days of implementation has thrown the economy of Western New York and North America into turmoil. It has left business owners with grave uncertainty and hardworking families facing the threat of skyrocketing gas, grocery, and housing prices. President Trump must end his reckless trade war with Canada, our greatest ally and trading partner, by immediately and permanently rescinding these tariffs.”
