Rosen Helps Introduce Bill to End Tariffs on Back-to-School Supplies

WASHINGTON, DC - Ahead of the start of a new school year, U.S. Senator Jacky Rosen (D-NV) helped introduce a bill to end tariffs on back-to-school supplies. The Back-To-School Supplies Affordability Act would exempt school supplies and educational materials from Donald Trump's tariffs, helping reduce costs for families, teachers, schools, and local governments.

"As school districts across Nevada begin the new school year, parents are being squeezed by the high cost of school supplies thanks to Donald Trump's reckless tariffs," said Senator Rosen. "I am proud to help introduce this bill to repeal tariffs on school supplies and provide some financial relief for hardworking families as they prepare our children for another school year. I promise that I will continue fighting in the Senate to lower the cost of living for families all across Nevada."

Senator Rosen has fought to lower costs and protect critical industries from Trump's tariffs. Earlier this year, she introduced legislation to exclude homebuilding materials from tariffs, helping to lower housing costs. Senator Rosen also introduced the No Tariffs on Groceries Act, which would block tariffs on food and agricultural products. In February, she helped introduce a bill requiring Trump to issue full refunds for importers that paid fees because of his illegal tariffs.
