Newsom vs. Trump: California governor asks for tariff exemption

California Gov. Gavin Newsom released a 30-second video saying how much he values global trade, imploring international companies not to retaliate with counter-tariffs on products made in California. "Donald Trump's tariffs do not represent all Americans, particularly those that I represent here," Newsom said in his video. "We value international trade. We value our manufacturing base. We look forward to strengthening those ties." "I want to remind our international trading partners, California is a stable trading partner," Newsom said. "And we hope you consider that as you consider California-made products." Sources in Newsom's administration told Fox News Digital Thursday night the announcement was a direct response to President Donald Trump's "Liberation Day" tariff plan, which sets out a baseline duty of 10% on all imports to the U.S. and some higher percentages for other top traders. Newsom wasn't specific about his plans, but he did say he asked his administration to seek out new opportunities to "expand trade." California boasts of being the fifth-largest economy in the world, a vital engine for much of U.S. economic growth, with a gross domestic product of $3.9 trillion. California’s economy and workers rely heavily on trade with Mexico, Canada, and China. Over 40% of California's imports come from these countries, Newsom's office said, totaling $203 billion of the more than $491 billion in goods imported by California in 2024.
