They will only increase costs on New York families and hurt our state\u2019s small businesses. Trump needs to stop the political games, go back to the negotiation table, and get a deal done that lowers costs and strengthens our economy instead of harming it.\u201d\n\nThe president\u2019s tariffs have previously been found to be unconstitutional and have already raised costs on New Yorkers. In addition, Canada is one of New York State\u2019s largest export markets for both goods and services, while the state imports more than $20 billion annually from Canada. Poll after poll after poll have found a resounding majority of Americans oppose Trump\u2019s tariffs actions that have raised prices and hurt their families.\n\n###", 1, "2026-08-25T05:31:37Z", "2026-08-25T05:33:09Z"]], "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://www.gillibrand.senate.gov/news/press/release/gillibrand-statement-on-trumps-stupid-price-increasing-canadian-tariffs/"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.1089968029409647, "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"}
