Alsobrooks Asks, “Who Is Liberation Day Really For?”

April 2, 2025
WASHINGTON, DC– Senator Angela Alsobrooks (D-Md.) released the following statement on the morning of Trump’s so-called ‘Liberation Day’:
“Who is Trump’s ‘Liberation Day’ really for?
“It’s not for middle class families in Maryland who are going to pay more for groceries, cars, gas, clothes, and more.
“It’s not for small business owners who are already struggling as consumer sentiment continues to plummet.
“In fact, Trump said he ‘couldn’t care less if [tariffs] raise prices’ and we know he has not done a single thing to bring down prices for families.
“So again, I ask, who is ‘Liberation Day’ for?
“I have a bill – the Tariff Transparency Act — that would answer this exact question.”
