Every year, Chuck commits to traveling to all62 counties in New York to meet with constituents.
On November 17th, 2025, days after Trump admitted his tariffs are spiking the cost of groceries, U.S. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer — flanked by North Country small businesses and families, on the frontlines of rising prices and plummeting tourism from Trump’s reckless trade war— demanded the House immediately take up his just-passed bipartisan Senate bill to end the trade war with Canada. Schumer said North Country families and small businesses are being hit harder than nearly anywhere else in the country by Trump’s tariff war, with costs skyrocketing for New York families by $4,200 each year and, after a brutal summer-tourism season of declining visits from Canada, that we must end this reckless tariff war and stop this tax hike on Upstate NY families.
