Minnesota Senator Amy Klobuchar is voicing concerns over the impact of President Trump’s volatile tariff strategy, warning it could have 
serious consequences for the state’s farmers. Speaking ahead of the President’s joint address to Congress, Klobuchar emphasized the importance of trade stability for Minnesota’s agricultural economy. “Canada, especially in Minnesota, is a huge trading partner of ours, so I’ve had a lot of farmers raise that with me.” Klobuchar also criticized staffing cuts at Farm Service Agency offices, arguing they could disrupt critical services for farmers in need of loans and support. “The last thing our farmers need right now is more uncertainty,” she said. “They already have the uncertainty of input costs, the uncertainty of what’s going on around the world, the uncertainty of drought or floods, and they certainly don’t need uncertainty by programs they thought they could rely on just suddenly, poof, going away.”
