Block Trump’s Trade War for Greenland Takeover

Donald Trump is threatening a trade war that would raise prices for American families — all to fuel a reckless power grab over Greenland.

Trump is escalating his pressure campaign against Denmark and the European Union, floating sweeping tariffs under a bogus “national emergency.” His goal isn’t security or diplomacy. It’s coercion. He’s using economic punishment to strong-arm democratic allies and override the will of Greenland’s people, who have been clear: they are not for sale.

Congress does not have to let this happen. Lawmakers must block funding for these tariffs, rein in abused emergency powers, and force immediate oversight. 

Tell Congress: “Block Trump’s Greenland trade war now. End his abuse of emergency tariff powers, defend our allies, and protect American families from another needless economic disaster.”

We’ve seen this before. Working people always pay the price for tariffs. Trump’s last trade wars hurt families across the country — and now he’s ready to do it again, bigger and faster.

Even Republicans are warning this could spiral out of control. Trump’s own treasury secretary is publicly begging Europe not to retaliate — a sign the administration knows just how dangerous this is. A trade war with the EU would weaken U.S. credibility, fracture alliances, and hand strategic advantages to authoritarian rivals watching closely from the sidelines.

Congress must draw a line before more damage is done. Add your name to demand Congress stop Trump’s crusade for Greenland from sparking another trade war.

The petition to Congress reads: “Block Trump’s Greenland trade war now. End his abuse of emergency tariff powers, defend our allies, and protect American families from another needless economic disaster.”
