What is Paige Cognetti's position on tariffs and trade?
Paige Cognetti supports targeted trade policies that protect American workers and domestic manufacturing — but opposes broad tariffs on allied nations that simply raise prices at the grocery store and gas pump without delivering comparable benefits to working families. She has criticized Rep. Bresnahan for trading stocks — including during the week President Trump announced major global tariffs — while his constituents absorbed higher costs. She frames the tariff issue the same way she frames monopoly power: too few people at the top benefiting while working families pay the price.
