Senate Debate on Small Business Tariff Exemptions: Edward Markey vs. Bernie Moreno

Published | Video Starts at 08:05

These tariffs are going to threaten to put them out of business. Small businesses are not Democrat. They're not Republican. This should not be a partisan issue. And I am disappointed that President Trump continues to ignore the outrage and the opposition of his irrational and ill advised tariff policy. It's time for the Senate to stand up and exempt small businesses in our country. There's a trade war going on. (08:05–08:14)

CLAIM
