Trump's tariff tyranny must END!

 Trump told people he would lower costs but his chaotic policies are already increasing inflation and raising costs for American consumers, while tanking the stock market. 

Trump’s tariffs will drive up the costs of goods that we all rely on. Billionaires will be fine, but these tariffs will hurt the middle class and working families the most.
 
These tariffs aren’t tiny tweaks to adjust for inflation, or adjustments made to increase wages for workers. The burden will fall on all of us to pay for Trump’s reckless decisions. These tariffs are a new tax that drive up costs on clothing, groceries and nearly everything we buy. 

These tariffs are just more of the chaos we've come to expect, but will not tolerate, from the Trump administration, and they must END outright. 

Why is this important?

At the end of the day, this is about us and what we need, not Trump’s obsession with trade wars against international partners. 

If Trump and his administration were actually concerned with generating revenue for the government, they would focus on ending tax breaks for billionaires, not tearing apart government agencies and raising costs on goods for everyday Americans.

Simply put: We will all pay more for everything, from gas, to groceries, to cars and electricity. While billionaires will continue to get their tax breaks and incentives that the Trump administration provide by stealing from the rest of us. 

Trump claims he’s “rescuing the economy”, but his tariffs are just going to drive up costs for everyday Americans, costing the average family thousands of dollars.

This is a complete betrayal of working and middle-class families everywhere in the United States.
