I\u2019ll have more to say on the specifics in the next few days.\n\n\u201cWhat I can say now is I\u2019m pleased the president is building his tariff agenda on the foundation of a universal 10 percent tariff like the one I proposed in the BUILT USA Act. This ring fence around the American economy is a good start to erasing our unsustainable trade deficits.\n\n\u201cI\u2019m eager to work with the president to fix the broken \u2018free trade\u2019 system that made multinational corporations rich but ruined manufacturing communities across the country. But tariffs must be paired with policies that prioritize American families\u2019 prosperity. We need to make sure that the new approach benefits working people \u2014 that means supporting unions, the trades and apprenticeship programs, cutting regulations that hold back production, unleashing American energy and using tariff revenue to support domestic manufacturers that create good-paying jobs for Americans.\n\n\u201cIt\u2019s also time to renegotiate trade deals like the USMCA to support the Americans who are ready to ramp up production and support the rebuilding of our middle class \u2014 like the sawmills, processing plants, fishermen and farmers in the communities I represent.\n\n\u201cTariffs are a first step in rewriting a rigged trade system, but they cannot be the last one.\u201d\n\n###", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-07T00:33:40Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://golden.house.gov/media/press-releases/golden-statement-on-president-trump-s-tariffs-announcements"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.7417080923914909, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
