Trump Backs Down on Price-Hiking Food Tariffs After Stevens Leads Bill to Lower Grocery Prices

WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Trump administration announced it will roll back tariffs on essential food items like coffee, bananas, and beef – confirming what Congresswoman Haley Stevens has been warning for months: Trump’s erratic tariffs are making prices too high. The administration's actions follow Congresswoman Stevens introducing her No Tariffs on Groceries Act in September, which would stop Trump’s price hikes at the checkout counter to lower costs for Michiganders.

In response to the administration’s reversal, Michigan Congresswoman Haley Stevens issued the following statement:

“It’s about time Trump realized that his reckless tariffs have done nothing but raise costs on Michigan’s hard-working families. That’s exactly why I  introduced my No Tariffs on Groceries Act – because Michiganders shouldn’t feel stressed every time they check out at the grocery store.  I will continue leading the charge to lower costs, stand up to this administration, and put Michigan families first.”
