Price pressures rise when import taxes stay high

Broad import tariffs can raise prices for everyday goods, which adds to inflation. This cause focuses on rolling back tariffs that are linked to higher consumer costs, while keeping the focus on targeted, practical changes. Winning means Congress reviews and repeals specific tariffs and delivers at least three reductions within 18 months.

Why this matters now

Tariffs are taxes on imported goods. When tariffs hit materials like steel and aluminum, and common products like electronics and clothing, costs often rise across the supply chain.

That can show up in higher prices at the store. For families already stretched by inflation, even small price increases on basics like appliances, clothes, and food can add up fast.

What's blocking progress

Tariffs have strong political support in some circles and are tied up in “national security” and trade negotiations. Even when Congress acts, a presidential veto or slow House action can stall changes.
