WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Representative Jimmy Gomez (CA-34) — a member of the House Ways and Means Committee overseeing trade policy — released the following statement in response to President Trump’s executive order imposing massive tariffs on imports from Mexico and Canada: “When you hear ‘tariff,’ think ‘tax’—because that’s what it is, plain and simple. As an economic tool, tariffs should be used like a scalpel—targeted toward specific industries—not like a hatchet with across-the-board tariffs on all imports, which recklessly raises costs for families.” For more updates from Congressman Gomez, follow @RepJimmyGomez on Instagram, Facebook, Threads, and X. ### |
