There is a lot to celebrate on the 250th anniversary of American independence.  Two and a half centuries ago, our founders laid the bedrock for the most prosperous trade zone in the world – the United States of America. In the Declaration of Independence, the founders asserted the right of our “free and independent states [to] have full power to establish commerce” under our own sovereignty and through representative government. In the ensuing years, the “American System” of trade, tariffs, and economics developed to promote American producers and workers, while securing robust and fair trade with the rest of the world. This system was in line with American values and ensured that other nations could not exploit the freedom of the market established within the United States.   However, as America took over many responsibilities as a world leader, our leaders signed away our sovereignty by making trade agreements and joining organizations that allowed our markets to be flooded with foreign labor, capital, goods, and services. Instead of supporting an economy to protect and reward American workers and producers, policymakers built an economy focused on debt-driven consumption to win the favor of multinational corporations and foreign governments.   By using tariffs and trade deals, President Trump is restoring the American System. The Trump Administration is reversing decades of globalist policies to reclaim the economic sovereignty that our founders fought for. Thanks to his America First policies, our country is more prosperous, secure, and free.   As we mark the 250th anniversary of our independence, we honor the visionary founding of our republic, the bravery of those who defend our freedoms, and the enduring principles of liberty and democracy that continue to unite us.
