Washington, D.C. – U.S. Senator Catherine Cortez Masto (D-Nev.) released the following statement after President Donald Trump announced sweeping new tariffs on American allies that will raise the cost of groceries, energy, and household goods for Nevada families.
“President Trump promised to lower costs on day one, but instead he’s raising taxes on hardworking American families and threatening Nevada’s travel and tourism economy. That’s unacceptable,” said Senator Cortez Masto. “I agree we should bring manufacturing back to America, but we can’t do that by jacking up prices on families. These blanket tariffs on some of our closest allies are going to do serious harm to hardworking Nevadans and their businesses.”
