The resolution, introduced by several Michigan representatives, urges the federal government to implement policies that support Michigan farmers in light of recent tariff threats and trade uncertainties. The agriculture industry is a crucial part of Michigan's economy, contributing approximately $104 billion annually and providing numerous jobs. However, the imposition of tariffs has led to increased costs, reduced export opportunities, and instability in agricultural markets, negatively impacting farmers' financial viability and competitiveness.

To address these challenges, the resolution calls for the federal government to adopt fair and balanced trade policies that protect Michigan's agricultural sector from the adverse effects of tariffs and trade disputes. Additionally, it advocates for investments in programs that enhance agricultural resilience, market diversification, and farmer assistance to help mitigate the economic disruptions caused by these trade issues. The resolution also requests that copies be sent to key federal officials and Michigan's congressional delegation to emphasize the importance of supporting the state's farmers.
