Bill Summary

Calls upon President Donald Trump to abandon his reckless tariff plans that would raise costs on Illinois families and businesses.

AI Summary

This resolution calls upon President Donald Trump to abandon his proposed tariff plans, which the Illinois House of Representatives believes would negatively impact Illinois families and businesses. The resolution cites analysis from the Peterson Institute for International Economics, which estimates that Trump's trade plans could increase living costs by up to $2,600 annually for American families through higher expenses on groceries, gas, utilities, and other goods. The document specifically highlights potential economic harm to Illinois, noting that the state's farming communities would be severely impacted, and that Canada and Mexico—the state's top export partners—could be disrupted by these trade policies. The resolution argues that the proposed tariffs would cause market instability, potentially weaken international trade relationships, and harm emerging technologies and manufacturing sectors. Additionally, the resolution references Trump's own acknowledgment that his trade strategy might cause "short term pain" and calls on him to reconsider these plans. The document concludes by requesting that copies of the resolution be delivered to President Trump and the Illinois Congressional Delegation.
