Take Action Against Wine Tariffs Now

As you may already know, President Trump posted on Truth Social threatening 200% tariffs on European wines—a move that would devastate American businesses far more than it would harm Europe. If enacted, these tariffs would pose an existential threat to our business.  We need Congress to act NOW to stop this.

WHAT YOU CAN DO? (It Only Takes 2 Minutes!)

 1. Call your representatives and senators today. Tell them how these tariffs would hurt your business, employees, and customers. Ask them to call President Trump.

2. Send a short email to Congress. A few sentences explaining how these tariffs would harm your business and community can make a real difference.

3. Find Your Representative HERE

• Step 1: Introduce Yourself

  "Hi, my name is [Your Name], and I’m calling from [Your Restaurant/Business Name] in [City, State]. We are a local business serving our community every day, and I’m deeply concerned about the 200% tariffs on European wine that President Trump has threatened to impose."

•  Step 2: Explain the Impact

  "If these tariffs go into effect, they won’t just hurt European wine producers—they will devastate small American businesses like mine. We rely on wine sales to stay afloat, and these tariffs would drastically raise prices, forcing us to remove wines from our list, cut jobs, or even risk closure."

  "This is an existential threat to restaurants, retailers, distributors, and even domestic wineries that depend on a healthy distribution system."

• Step 3: Make a Clear Request

  "I urge [Representative/Senator’s Name] to oppose any new wine tariffs and protect small businesses like mine. Please do everything possible to stop this disastrous policy before it puts thousands of Americans out of work. Ask President Trump to find a solution to trade issues that doesn’t burden small businesses here at home."

• Step 4: Thank Them

  "Thank you for your time. Please let [Representative/Senator’s Name] know that we’re counting on their support."
