Lower costs. Raise wages. Create good Kentucky jobs.
Kentuckians are paying too much for groceries, gasoline, electricity, housing, and medicine. I will cut taxes for working and middle-class families, lower costs for everyday necessities and excessive fees, protect Social Security and Medicare, and defend workers' freedom to organize for better wages and benefits.
“Stupid” is the only word I have for going to war with your trade partners, but tariffs and trade wars started by this White House have caused everything to go up, from gas to toys. On day one, I will introduce a joint resolution revoking the fake “national emergency” that President Trump has used to raise tariffs that have made everything cost more and hurt Kentucky businesses.
Blanket tariffs fueling trade wars are hidden taxes. They continue to raise prices, increase costs for farmers, and invite retaliation against Kentucky bourbon, a signature industry that supports thousands of Kentucky jobs and has been caught in the crossfire of trade fights for years. The House of Representatives has introduced this resolution, but Andy Barr does not support it, effectively rubber-stamping a stupid trade war that is being waged at our expense. It ends on day one if I am elected.
