“Voters wanted this": Sen. Grassley responds to the tariff uneasiness

Ag lawmakers are responding to the tariff rollout and the subsequent retaliatory tariffs.

Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley says while there may be some uneasiness oout there, this is what the voters wanted.

“I think we have to realize that he’s just doing what the voters voted him to do and we’ll just have to see how it works out.”

Canada is a major supplier of potash to the United States. Senator Grassley says there has been no request to the White House yet for a potential waiver. They have also hit back with their own tariffs, 25 percent on around $30 billion of U.S. goods, which will continue until the U.S. drops its tariffs against Canada.
