Even though President Trump paused tariffs on Mexico for a month, duties still remain in place on Canadian and Chinese imports into the U.S. Senator Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) led 14 other Senators in urging President Donald Trump to reconsider his recently imposed tariffs that threaten American farmers, ranchers, businesses, and consumers. The tariffs on China and Canada will make it harder for farmers to sell their products, increase input costs, and make it harder for Americans to put food on the table. In a letter to the White House, the Senators said, “At a time when farmers operate on razor-thin margins due to low commodity prices and increased input costs, the chaos and uncertainty of these tariffs threaten their livelihoods.” It also makes it harder for farmers to sell their products and for people to put food on their tables. “Farm families should not be collateral damage,” they added.
