【Key Focus: Trump Proposes a $12 Billion Agricultural Assistance Program to Alleviate the Impact of Tariffs】
On December 8, 2025, in Washington, the Associated Press released a news article stating:
According to a White House official, President Trump is planning an assistance program for American farmers who are struggling to sell their crops due to rising costs caused by the president's tariffs on foreign countries as part of a broader trade war. According to the official, who was granted anonymity and allowed to speak before the announcement, Trump will unveil the plan at the White House on Monday afternoon.
American farmers have politically supported Trump, but his aggressive trade policies and frequently changing tariff rates have come under increasing scrutiny due to their impact on the agricultural sector and broader consumer concerns. This aid is the latest effort by the Trump administration to defend its economic management and respond to voters' anxieties about rising costs.
