Democrats warn that Americans will face higher costs and eventually pay the price for the president of the new tariffs Donald Trump It is imposed by Mexico, Canada and China.
On Friday, the White House announced that in response to an “invasion of an illegal fentanil” on the USA, 25% of tariffs will be imposed on all goods entering the United States from Mexico and Canada, 10% of the Tariff on Canadian Energy and 10% of Tariff on all goods enters the US from China.
Tariffs against China came into force on Tuesday, although Trump agreed to push the tariffs against Mexico and Canada for at least one month after talking to each country on securing the border.
While Trump acknowledged on Friday, tariffs could result in “temporary, short -term disorders,” Democrats claim that US taxpayers will eventually hurt and pay the price.
According to one Washington Think Tank, in a non -partisan Peterson Institute of International EconomicsThese circles of tariff circles are expected to cost US households approximately $ 1200 a year.
As a result, the leader of the Senate minority Chuck Schumer, Dn.y., took a murder in Trump and mocked the president’s fictional expression on the “golden age” of economic prosperity.

“President Trump has launched the golden age of higher costs for US families with his 25% tariff in Canada and Mexico,” Schumer said on Monday upstairs of Senate. “Two of our four biggest commercial partners issuing his tariffs. Donald Trump again set the game for his billionaire friends, until they do nothing to reduce US families.”
“Trump’s tariffs will increase gas prices and we should not listen to Donald Trump at all when he says it’s about stopping the fantanila,” Schumer said. “It’s nonsense. There are other ways to stop fental without deteriorating inflation and increasing the cost of the American family.”
In addition, Sens. Chris Coons, D-Del., And Tim Kaine, D-VA, introduced the legislation on Thursday, which would increase the supervision of legislative branches before imposing new tariffs. In particular, the legislation would require the president to steal the Congress on tariff proposals and influences on the American economy and foreign policy.
The measure, known as the stopping of the Allies and the strengthening of the legislative execution of the (stable) law on trade policy, would also demand the approval of the congress before they execute new tariffs to US allies or other partners under the Free Trade Agreement.

Coons warned that the US people would pay the price of tariffs, which in a long time marked the “biggest tax increase” to Americans. Coons also warned that the imposition of tariffs Mexico and Canada would turn them into “nervous neighbors” and that they could endanger relations with the Allies.
“China, Mexico and Canada are our three largest shopping partners,” Coons said in a statement on Friday. “It’s the biggest increase in Americans in a long time, which will cost them thousands of dollars every year. President Trump again makes America expensive.”
Experts warned that food costs such as avocado, dairy products and certain meat could increase as a result of tariffs. For example, Kelly Beaton, a main content officer at the Food Institute, noted that they are now receiving a large portion of pig imports and beef from Canada. These tariffs “undoubtedly” will lead to higher imports of imports and, ultimately, higher prices of beef and pork for US consumers, she said, she said, she said Fox Business reports.
Likewise, a democratic tail. Suzan Delbene, D-Wash., And Don Beyer, D-Va., Also in January introduced the legislation that Trump would block the use of emergency for the implementation of tariffs, in the midst of an anxiety that US consumers would end with a law proposal.
“Not only would the widespread tariffs increase the costs at home and probably send our economy to the recession, but they are likely to lead to significant retaliation, injure US workers, farmers and companies,” Delbene said in the January 15th.
In response to Americans who absorb the costs from the tariff, Trump said on Sunday on Sunday to the truth, “Will there be pain? Yes, maybe (and maybe not!) Worth the price that must be paid.”
While Senator Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., He told NBC News “60 minutes,” he predicted that the tariffs would increase consumer costs and other Republicans like Senator Lindsey Graham, Rs.c. Fox News said on Sunday that the tariffs were designed so that they were “seizing these countries to change their behavior.”
The tariffs were imposed on “unprecedented invasion of the illegal fentanil killing US nationals,” said a secretary for the press press press of the Karolina Leavitt White House.
