I’m a merchandiser, and tariffs are making business dry up

Story Summary:

Barbara from Pendleton, Oregon, has spent 15 years as a merchandiser, but says this spring is unlike any she’s seen—stores aren’t putting out the usual displays for major holidays, and her hours have dropped. She blames Trump’s tariffs and trade policies, which she says are making it harder to import goods and hurting working Americans like her. Barbara wants an end to trade restrictions so people like her can do their jobs and earn a living.
