Representative Jen Kiggans Remains Silent as New Tariffs are Announced

Working Families Continue to Struggle as Billionaires Profit

Virginia Beach, VA – Today, President Trump implemented new tariffs that will continue to raise the price of everyday goods that Virginia families rely on in order to pay for more tax breaks for billionaires.

“These new tariffs will weigh down working Virginia families in ways we can only imagine, but will be forced to endure,” said Emily Yeatts, Affordable Virginia Campaigns Director. “Working Virginians will be the first to feel the impact of Trump’s tariffs. Meanwhile, our Congresswoman Jen Kiggans has ignored her constituents' concerns, questioned their authenticity, and is still silent about her stance on tariffs. She also voted to give Trump the green light to implement tariffs without Congressional approval. Rep. Kiggans, if you’re reading this, it’s time to take a stand for working Virginians instead of billionaires and oppose these tariffs.”
