While GOP Gov Candidate Bill Berrien Doubles Down on Tariff Tax, Sen. Baldwin Listens To Negative Impacts On Local Businesses
MADISON, Wis. — On the same day Senator Tammy Baldwin met with Wisconsin business owners to discuss the negative impact the tariff tax is having on their companies, GOP gubernatorial candidate Bill Berrien doubled down on his unequivocal support of this policy. But Berrien, in what is becoming a theme of his campaign, flip-flopped on his previous stance where he admitted that tariffs can hurt business.
Berrien also backtracked his support for a state tariff tax, despite claiming that it would be a benefit to Wisconsin businesses.

Nov 4th, 2025 by Democratic Party of Wisconsin"We found it makes a tremendous difference when neighbors understand their community, know people, and understand their way of life. They can connect on a more individual basis. It is much more effective than just another campaign ad or someone flown in from out of state and paid to do it, when it's someone who actually has the same stakes and benefits as you. That's why we focus on neighbors talking to neighbors." – WisDems Chair Devin Remiker
