(The Center Square) — Maine’s two U.S. senators are asking the Trump administration to provide financial support for the state’s forest products industry as many companies struggle with the impact of tariffs. 

In a letter to Trump administration officials, Sens. Susan Collins, R-Maine and Angus King, I-Maine, said they are “gravely concerned” about the impact of the tariffs imposed on imports of timber and lumber on the state’s multi-billion dollar forest products industry.
