www.courier-journal.com Mitch McConnell: Kentuckians can't afford the high cost of Trump's tariffs
Trump administration tariffs could have long-term consequences for Kentucky farmers, bourbon companies, the auto industry and consumer prices.
Summary
Sen. Mitch McConnell warns that Trump’s tariffs could cost the average Kentuckian up to $1,200 annually, raising consumer prices and harming industries reliant on global trade.
He argues that trade wars hurt working people most, citing past retaliatory tariffs on Kentucky products like bourbon.
While acknowledging the need to counter China’s unfair trade practices, McConnell urges cooperation with allies rather than broad protectionism.
