Van Hollen Opposes Canadian Tariffs

Both the United States and Canada have imposed tariffs on goods to each other of up to 50%, escalating a trade war after a failure at negotiations. Maryland’s Democratic Senator Chris Van Hollen is calling Trump’s actions, including the renaming of Lake Ontario to Lake America, childish and says the American people continue to suffer economically…

“These tariffs amount to taxes on the American people. And instead of raising new tariff taxes on the American people, the president should give back the approximately $2,000 in monies that the American households have spent from his first round of illegal tariffs – the ones that were struck down by the Supreme Court.”
