SOUTH BEND, Ind.—Democratic presidential hopeful and current South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg was live in the ABC57 studio on Wednesday.

Buttigieg discussed the impact of increasing tariffs on Michiana farmers after sharing his view on the national issue on Twitter on May 13.

Quick reminder: a tariff is a tax. On Americans.
