An ag equipment maker says tariffs have been passed on to

employees, new markets, new investments.”
Dix says the fear is a resolution won’t be reached, “It’s
going to be very, very difficult as we enter the election cycle, to get the
attention this needs and get the work that needs to be done on it.”
Dix spoke at Kinze headquarters in Williamsburg, Iowa which
hosted a town hall meeting with AEM and Tariffs Hurt the Heartland.
