U.S. Rep. Jackie Walorski (R-Ind.) released the following statement after the Trump administration announced additional tariffs on Chinese imports:
“We need to hold China accountable for its unfair trade practices, but I am increasingly concerned about the harmful impact tariffs are having on Hoosier farmers and manufacturers. It’s time for President Trump and President Xi to meet face-to-face and find a long-term solution that ensures American farmers, businesses, and workers are treated fairly. Until such an agreement is reached, the administration should work with Congress to minimize the negative effects of these tariffs.”
Walorski represents the 2nd Congressional District of Indiana, serving as a member of the House Ways and Means Committee.
