The US Retail Organization Urges Trump to Abandon Tariff Policy

BlockBeats News, April 2nd: Before Trump announced the tariff increase, the Retail Industry Leaders Association urged the government to change its focus. The organization stated that it strongly urged Trump to double down on his first-term policies such as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), which would reduce costs while achieving growth. At the same time, they urged Trump to abandon policies that bring uncertainty to American businesses and families. Michael Hanson, who leads the organization's public affairs, said in a statement: "Americans expect Trump to help them make life more affordable, and families, after experiencing years of price increases, also hope to have financial certainty when planning their budgets."
