Donald Trump has been using tariffs to improve America’s international trade standings, and he should also use them to punish foreign polluters, Doral Sen. Ana Maria Rodriguez said.
In an open letter to Congress with Rep. Toby Overdorf, a fellow Republican from Palm City, Rodriguez lauded the United States’ “incredible strides” in reducing carbon emissions.
China, Russia and others have polluted “for decades” with looser standards and “no consequences,” and that should change, Rodriguez and Oderforf’s letter said.
“We ought to reward U.S. businesses for their innovative practices with trade policies that hold foreign polluters to the same standards.”
