  *Gov. Reynolds issues statement on tariffs going into effect on ‘Liberation Day’* DES MOINES— Today, Governor Kim Reynolds released the following statement on President Donald J. Trump’s rollout of taxes on foreign imports: “The Biden administration consistently ignored the needs of Iowa farmers. They failed to deliver a Farm Bill, refused to expand market access, and turned a balanced ag trade situation into a shocking $50 billion deficit. Instead of standing up to countries like Brazil, Biden chose to reward them - importing more ethanol after they slapped tariffs on ours.

President Trump is using tariffs as leverage - to force our trading partners to the table and put America’s farmers first. My job is to protect Iowans, and I’m working directly with the administration to ease the short-term impact, keep our ag economy strong, and open the door to new export opportunities.”    # # #
