Tell Rep. Tom Kean Jr: Stand Up to Trump’s Tariffs and Protect Our Economy!


Tell Rep. Tom Kean Jr: Stand Up to Trump’s Tariffs and Protect Our Economy!
The Issue
President Trump’s reckless tariffs are hurting New Jersey families — raising prices, squeezing small businesses, and threatening jobs across our state. Yet Congressman Tom Kean Jr. remains silent.
It’s time for Rep. Kean to stand up for New Jersey — not Donald Trump.
Sign this petition to demand Congressman Tom Kean Jr.:
Call on President Trump to immediately roll back his ruinous tariffs, and
Support bipartisan legislation to rein in executive overreach by:
- Limiting a president’s power to impose tariffs, by allowing Congress to vote to end any tariff at any time,
- Mandating that the president notify Congress within 48 hours of imposing duties — and get explicit Congressional approval within 60 days for any new tariff.
New Jersey families deserve transparency, accountability, and leaders who put us, not politics, first.
Add your name now! Let’s hold Tom Kean Jr. accountable — and protect New Jersey’s economy from another Trump trade war

The Impact of Trump's Trade War
Trump’s tariffs announced to date will increase U.S. prices by 2.3 percent in the near term—the equivalent to an average consumer loss of $3,800 per household. As a result of Trump’s massive new tariffs, Americans can expect to pay more for everyday goods:
- At the grocery store, tariffs on Latin American nations could push up the price of bananas, coffee and chocolate.
- Wine imported from Europe could increase by up to 40 percent, putting pressure on importers and small businesses.
- Prices for iPhones could increase by up to 40 percent due to the new 46 percent tariffs on Vietnam and 34 percent tariffs on China.
- Japanese manufacturers of video game consoles have likely already increased prices to preempt Trump’s tariffs—and the 24 percent tariff on Japan could see a $400 console soon cost $500.
- According to the American Apparel and Footwear Association, 97 percent of clothing is imported from overseas, including from Vietnam (46 percent tariff) and Bangladesh (37 percent tariff).
