"You got the math wrong, according to the people whose research you cited... This math error had the effect of quadrupling the tariffs Trump applied to some of our biggest trading partners."

What I told Trump's top trade adviser:
"Ambassador Greer, you have a most awful job: to try to convince us and the people we represent that the President’s trade policies are wise and measured when the truth is they are stupid and bad.”
--continued below--
Congress must stop the madness.
I joined @replindasanchez.bsky.social and @waysmeanscmte.bsky.social colleagues to introduce legislation to repeal Trump’s latest tariffs and bar any future tariffs without congressional approval.
Congress must act before Trump causes a recession— time is short.

"President Donald Trump’s tariffs could have a pandemic-sized shock on U.S. small businesses, and they’re landing as his administration scales back resources meant to help an increasingly embattled Main Street."

Members of Congress must serve their constituents, not their own financial interests. We need a stock trading ban on Congress, and I cosponsored legislation to do it.

House Republicans just voted to cut health care, cut school lunches, and cut veterans' benefits — all to hand $7 trillion in tax breaks to Elon Musk and his billionaire friends.
They've deserted their hardworking constituents to help the rich get richer.

NOW: Democrats on the @waysmeanscmte.bsky.social led by Trade Subcommittee Ranking Member @replindasanchez.bsky.social introduce broad legislation to reclaim Congress’ power, roll back Trump’s tariffs, and stop him from wrecking the U.S. economy.
The Republican budget will balloon our deficits and decimate essential programs like Medicaid that the people we represent depend on.
All of this to help billionaires and corporations get tax cuts that they do not need and our country cannot afford. I will vote no.
Today the Ways and Means Committee had a hearing on Trump's idiotic trade policy.
I told his U.S. Trade Representative: that policy is "stupid and bad."
It's such a disaster that shortly after this Trump suspended his latest tariffs hours after they took effect.

It's good that Trump caved on some of the tariffs he put on our trading partners, but his universal 10% tariffs, trade wars with China and Canada, and auto and other sector tariffs still threaten our economy. He should drop them too.
The best time to stop punching yourself in the face is right now.
Every House Republican who votes for today's rule is voting for Trump's tariffs.
They're voting to surrender congressional authority and their own power to stop Trump.
A vote for this rule is a vote to wreck our economy.
This resolution from @meeks.house.gov @neal.house.gov @repricklarsen.bsky.social, which I cosponsored, has privilege on the House floor.
We are going to force House Republicans to vote on Trump's crazy tariffs and the destruction they are unleashing on our economy.
Thanks to everyone who came out yesterday to stand up and make their voices heard. Millions of us across the country showed we will not be silent!
As seen on the national mall today, where over a hundred thousand people gathered today to stand up for democracy:
As the lawless authoritarian in the White House is doing his damnedest to trample the Constitution, Americans across the country are standing in hope and solidarity today - and sending a clear message:
We will never stop fighting for our country.
Tariffs are taxes. Consumers pay those taxes, and they are regressive—meaning they hit low and middle income people harder than high income people.
Coupled with Trump's tax cuts for the rich, this will be the largest transfer of wealth from the working and middle class to the wealthy in history.
