The Maine lobster industry has been hard hit by the unfair 25% retaliatory tariff China imposed in 2018. At a Commerce Committee hearing, I urged @USTradeRep Katherine Tai to support Maine lobstermen & women by pushing China to uphold its promise to purchase more U.S. lobster. https://t.co/QngzKC8N5u — PolitiTweet.org
