A new study by the Tax Foundation shows that the full-weight of tariffs would lower U.S. wages by 0.39 percent and cost more than 465,000 American jobs over the next decade, counteracting one-third of the long-term benefits of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. https://t.co/Dbb2o0KN7j pic.twitter.com/o5ivavOEiW

It's obvious that Washington doesn't care about us anymore. These tariffs are horrible for our farmers, and Trump's aid package isn't going to help us here in the #CentralValley. It's time for real representation of our communities. #CA22 https://t.co/QZucVieje1
