BOULDER - Today, Governor Polis met with small business owners in Boulder to discuss Trump's reckless tariff taxes and hear the impacts of tariffs on Colorado small businesses. Governor Polis met with Artilect Studio, a Boulder-based outdoor clothing company, Enveda, a Biotechnology Company, McGuckin Hardware, and Biomed Realty.

"The President's reckless tariff taxes are giving the economy whiplash, driving further uncertainty for businesses, and squeezing Americans' pocketbooks by increasing the cost of food, clothes, groceries, and daily necessities. Today I heard from small businesses that tariffs are making it harder and more costly to do business, deepening uncertainty, and driving away customers due to increased costs and prices. It's far past time for President Trump to stop playing with our economy," said Governor Polis.
