SEATTLE TIMES: New Trump tariffs on auto imports could hit hard at WA ports
President Donald Trump’s new tariffs on foreign cars and car parts mean more economic risk for Washington…
Trump’s reckless trade war just landed another gut punch to Washington state. His new 25% auto tariff will spike car prices by up to $15,000, crush jobs at our ports, and make life even more expensive for working families.
Maria Cantwell isn’t having it.
“We’re going to see the price of cars go up, and the fact that the American public can't afford grocery costs, health care costs, or housing costs – we certainly don’t need to add auto costs…
The Constitution gave Congress this power to set duties and to regulate foreign commerce…It's time for Congress to reassert that authority”
We couldn’t agree more!
Trump’s billionaire allies may not mind another round of chaos from the MAGA right, but Washington’s trade-dependent economy and everyday Americans like us cannot afford to get squeezed any more.
Maria is going to keep leading the fight to stop this madness, demanding Congress reassert its power over tariffs and protect workers, consumers, and our economy.
Stay tuned—we’ll be in touch with more news from the frontlines soon.
— Team Cantwell
| MAGA Republicans are watching this moment closely. If we fall behind in fundraising, they’ll take it as a sign of weakness. Let’s show them the State of Washington fights back. Chip in now while Maria keeps holding their feet to the fire.
