Rep. Suzan DelBene, a U.S. Congress member representing Washington's 1st district since 2012, recently used her social media platform to express concerns over the implications of trade policies under the Trump administration. Her posts focused on the economic impact of tariffs and the necessity for Congressional involvement in trade policy matters.
On April 2, 2025, Rep. DelBene tweeted about the adverse effects of tariffs, stating, "Higher tariffs mean higher prices on everyday essentials like food, gas, & medicine. Families can’t afford to pay the price for Trump’s reckless trade war. Congress must reclaim its voice in trade policy." This highlights her stance on the need for Congress to have a more prominent role in shaping trade agreements.
In another brief tweet shared on the same day, Rep. DelBene posted a link without additional commentary, leaving the specific content of the link undisclosed.
Similarly, a third post was shared around the same time, consisting solely of a link, with no explanation or accompanying text, suggesting an intentional focus on directing attention elsewhere.
