WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, in response to the Supreme Court ruling on Trump’s reckless tariffs, Congresswoman Haley Stevens (D-MI) released the following statement:
“Congress, the American people, and now the Supreme Court have spoken: Michigan workers and businesses should not be forced to pay the price for Trump’s reckless, shoot-from-the-hip tariffs. From the start, Donald Trump’s erratic tariffs wreaked havoc on Michigan manufacturers, small businesses, and workers. Every day costs, including for groceries, increased for families making life more difficult.
“We don’t need a Supreme Court ruling to know that Donald Trump abused his power—he does it all the time. Today’s decision to scale back Trump’s overreach reasserts Congress’s role in determining sweeping economic policy.
“My North Star will always be lowering costs, fighting back against Trump’s reckless policies, and making sure every Michigander has a chance to get ahead with a good-paying job.”
Recently, Stevens voted for a bipartisan House resolution to repeal Trump’s tariffs on Canada. She introduced the No Tariffs on Groceries Act to lower costs for Michiganders and prevent the President from unilaterally putting tariffs on food and other agricultural products. Just weeks after Stevens’ push, the Trump Administration announced it would back down on price hikes at the checkout counter.
