Later that day, Rep. Stevens voiced concerns over potential economic impacts due to proposed tariffs by former President Donald Trump. She highlighted the expected price increases for everyday goods in Michigan if these tariffs were implemented: "If Trump goes ahead with these INSANE blanket tariffs, starting tomorrow, Michigan families can expect to pay: 25% more for Mexican-grown tomatoes ️ 25% more for gasoline made from Canadian oil 10% more for new school clothes made in China."
