AR 72 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Opposes President Trump's tariff policy on imported products.

This non-binding Assembly Resolution (AR 72) expresses New Jersey's opposition to President Trump's tariff policies, specifically targeting 25% tariffs on steel/aluminum and cars/auto parts, plus a 10% universal import duty. It states the resolution will be formally transmitted to the President, Vice President, and U.S. Trade Representative. The resolution cites economic concerns, noting tariffs function as taxes that raise prices for consumers and businesses, increase living costs, and threaten New Jersey's economy - particularly its port-dependent trade. It does not alter any laws or impose new requirements, serving solely as a symbolic statement of opposition.
