(The Center Square) — Maine Sen. Susan Collins is urging the Trump administration to make a deal with Canada to end the trade war as she battles for reelection in a state hit hard by the president's latest round of tariffs targeting its northern neighbor.

In a letter to Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, Collins said President Donald Trump's 50% tariffs targeting Canadian goods has been "disastrous" for her state and called on the administration to return to the negotiating table.
