I've been hearing from many Pennsylvanians this week about the new tariffs, and I want to make sure I’m getting all the feedback on how they’re impacting our state. To make it clear, I support fairness for PA companies and workers affected by unfair global trading practices. That must... end. But I also want to protect PA against the unintended consequences of these tariffs, so I’m gathering data from across the Commonwealth. I want all Pennsylvanians to know my positions—Watch my take on the tariffs on CNBC. I appreciate your feedback as I continue fighting for PA jobs.show more

Dave huge unforced error. This is a disaster. How about gutting our public research universities PITT and CMU. Jobs ongoing research for cures for chronic illnesses. Speak up represent our community. We don’t need an apologist for catastrophic economic policies.

Here’s what could get more expensive with Trump’s new tariffs.

These tariffs are horrible, please stand with Rand Paul against these tax hikes

Thought you read the Wall Street Journal. They know this is catastrophic. Step up! Represent us.

Thanks for seeking our feedback. The tariffs will tax us all by raising the cost of goods, in and out of PA, while our investments tank. I oppose them, and oppose the broad brush and simplistic approach of applying them.

The tariffs will end up lowering inflation. I'm for it

I say quit the fear mongering & let’s see how things work out. Trump a great businessman and an outstanding negotiator!! I believe he knows what he’s doing.

Senator, thank you for asking. You have a thorough understanding of the tariff plan. I’m optimistic and I understand that there will be 6 to 9 months-ish of adjustments. There’s a light at the end of the tunnel that I thought we might never see again. Stay the course! 🇺🇸🇺🇸

I support Trump tariff countries has been cheating us too long

I trust @POTUS and his plan. He's a good man.

I got your feedback right here

33% of jobs lost in Pennsylvania moved to other countries. While you're worried about a little increase on goods from other countries, Pennsylvanians have lost work, wages, stability, and American products. Other countries tax our American goods and short American companies $.

These tax hikes are already negatively affecting normal Americans like me. America is the greatest country in the world in no small part due to our free markets. We don't need to become more like Europe and China. Let them ruin their own economies

They were done irresponsibly by @POTUS pls sign on to @ChuckGrassley bill to responsibly enact smart & = tariffs!

Hi Dave. I support fairness too, but remember how we got here due to greedy corporations wanted the cheapest labor possible to make the greatest profits. And the bulldozer approach doesn’t work. You guys don’t have a clue what you’re doing. My IRA thanks you (NOT)!

You trust his plan so much you sold 1-5 million in stock on March 30th huh? If you trust in it so much why won’t you ride out the “short term pain”

Sounds like you’re blowing people off. You wanted to be Senator act like it.

Stfu, stfu, STFU. “Trump announced the largest tax increase in our country’s history with the stroke of a pen. His tariffs are destroying our economy.” It’s that simple. It’s so fucking simple. No paragraphs, no explaining. Just say those lines, jfc.

Not good enough, Senator. Trump is abusing his power to set tariffs, claiming an emergency that does not exist. You must stand for the Congress power over tariffs and trade. Because that is what he Constitution requires.

Poor Dave, scrambling to have it both ways. Fuck off, you utterly bought hack. You’ve never given a shit about us & wont start now.

Ok just actually watched this. Super cringey! Glittering gibberish meaning nothing. Host asks Dina a question but she just sits there w/ same dumb fake, frozen smile on her face while Dave answers “for” her?! Jesus.

MAGA

I am fairly confident you could care less with the citizens of Pennsylvania think. Why is congress so afraid to do their jobs and be an equal branch of government? POTUS was golfing today. USA as a world leader is over and you seem fine with that.

Everyone is getting poorer. This is utter madness.

I Don’t believe these manufacturing jobs are coming back. Ever

He's gutting the "real economy" and putting a huge tax burden on the real working class of America. This is as unAmerican as it gets. Greedy pricks like you want to spin this, but if you paid your fair share we wouldn't be dealing with this shit.

Trump policies and tariffs are destroying the country and you, @SenFettermanPA and @RepMackenzie are doing nothing. Read @TheEconomist or @WSJ or talk to an economist. These are taxes. Retirements wiped out. There are no adults in DC and the children have the box of matches.

PS -why is your wife always w/ you w/ that strange plastered on smile? It’s weird - kinda creepy.

prioritize "Main Street over Wall Street." Yes!

You’re laughing all the way to the bank just like that a** hole in the WH

I completely support the President’s tariffs

I too trust @POTUS' tariff plan to right the ship to bring jobs & revenue back home to the US. I also understand there'll be a transition/ adjustment period to weather. Thank you for asking!

PA manufacturing and workers should be celebrating this!!!

The President should not have the unilateral authority to do what he's doing on tariffs. This kind of sweeping economic policy should only happen with Congressional approval. You should join with Paul, Collins, McConnell, and Murkowski, and vote to take back this power..

Bring back Chester
