Rep. Marcy Kaptur, currently serving as a member of the U.S. Congress for Ohio’s 9th district, took to social media to express her concerns regarding tariffs affecting U.S.-Canada relations. Known for her longstanding service since 1983, Kaptur addressed the economic and diplomatic impacts of these trade measures.

On April 29, 2025, Kaptur commented, "Reckless tariffs are causing great harm on both sides of the US-Canada border. We must work to restore normal cultural, economic, and political relations with our neighbor and ally. House GOP: allow an up or down vote to revoke these harmful tariffs that are crippling our Great". Her remarks underscore the need for legislative action to counteract the adverse effects of the tariffs.

In a subsequent post made on the same date, Kaptur shared a link as a follow-up to her initial statement, adding ": https://t.co/2DHDJABHG5". The link presumably leads to additional resources or information related to her earlier message.

Later on April 29, 2025, Kaptur directed her audience to explore further the impact of tariffs on employment, stating, "Find out exactly where they cost us jobs here: https://t.co/5nfXZM88SE". This assertion highlights the tangible consequences tariffs have on job markets, urging individuals to understand the broader implications.

Marcy Kaptur was born in Toledo, Ohio, in 1946 and remains a resident of her birth city. With a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Wisconsin–Madison, she has built a noteworthy career in public service, succeeding Ed Weber in representing Ohio’s 9th district.
