“Tariffs have wreaked havoc on the American economy by driving up the price of everyday goods for hardworking Americans and businesses. They've been especially disruptive for our growers, producers and ranchers who have been suffering under the weight of high input costs and lost market access. While I applaud the Supreme Court for reigning in the president's power to issue tariffs by decree, I fear these tariffs have already caused lasting damage to farm country. While Trump promised to deliver a 'Golden Age' for agriculture, his tariffs cost our farmers billions in lost revenue and handed our export markets to agricultural competitors like Argentina and Brazil. These losses will take years to recover from. Congress must provide struggling farmers and families with meaningful relief, and the Agriculture Committee should prioritize helping American farmers survive by focusing on a truly bipartisan farm bill that addresses the current challenges our growers are facing.” 

In January 2026, Ranking Member Craig and fellow Democrats introduced the Farm and Family Relief Act (H.R.7206), which would repeal the president’s executive order deploying tariffs under IEEPA, in addition to providing necessary aid to American farmers and people struggling to afford food due to his trade wars.
