“Tariff the call centers. All of them.”
Senator Bernie Moreno spoke to Jack Posobiec on Friday about an issue that has been of paramount importance to both men: the taxing and tariffing of foreign call centers used by American companies to outsource customer service. Posobiec said that reports were starting to emerge from the White House that there may be action on this, and Moreno has proposed legislation along these lines to protect American workers.
“What we have to do,” Moreno said, “is close the loophole on services. So when you call your credit card company or utility and they’ve outsourced these jobs that would otherwise be held by American citizens, to foreign countries—that by the way, are openly hostile to the United States of America—you’re screwing over the American worker. One of the thing I vowed to do here in the United States Senate is to reset this relationship. We need to be advocating for American workers.”
Posobiec spoke about this during the recent NatCon convention, issuing a tweet that read: “Tariff the call centers. All of them.” CNN picked it up as the complained about the anti-globalist MAGA contingent that is insistent on putting America and Americans first.
Moreno’s legislation would tax the US companies that outsource call centers to foreign nations 25% of their total contract. This, he said, would “give them the proper motivation they need to hire American workers, employe them right here in the United States, and let those salaries filter through a community. Because obviously, you pay the workers: they go visit a restaurant, they go buy a car, they buy a home, rent an apartment. We’re losing all that to these foreign countries and these corporations are chasing cheap labor. We’re not going to let them keep doing that with with no penalties at all.”
Posobiec pointed out that tariffs are not only for goods, that the Constitution says all foreign commerce can be regulated. “This is exactly what the President has called for in terms of the rebalance of this trade relationship,” he said. It’s time, Posobiec said, for Americans to stop training their own foreign replacements. “It’s got to stop.”
The money that comes in, Moreno said, will go to trade schools to “help American workers skill up, connect them to the good jobs they need.” He went on to say “we want a free enterprise system, but the government’s role is to create an environment of incentives or disincentives, right? So we’ve been incentivizing these companies to do these kinds of things.”
