| Message | Mr. Speaker, It is a dangerous thing when the government tries to restrict free trade. That means that not once you put a tariff on a product, countries who don't have are heavily disadvantaged. That's why my party thinks it is in the best interest for everybody only to put tariffs on products when other countries have done the same. So it will not hurt our economy and businesses, but also not other's. That's what we call fair trade AND protection of our businesses. Kayla Bush, Representative Ardinia, Leader LP |
