Rudy Yakym has accepted documented donations from sectors with material interests in "Tariff impact on Elkhart County RV industry" but has no public statement, vote, or hearing record on the topic. Expected position: Yakym's district is the 'RV Capital of the World,' producing 85% of all RVs in Elkhart, Indiana. As co-chair of the Congressional RV Caucus, Yakym would be expected to publicly and specifically address how Trump administration tariffs on Canadian and Mexican imports affect RV manufacturers who voiced these concerns directly to him. Evidence of activity on adjacent topics: In March 2025, Yakym met with RV industry leaders who raised tariff concerns. He acknowledged 'they're certainly giving us some loud and clear feedback about the issues they're facing, even specifically to tariff issues relating to Canada and Mexico, and how they'd like to see those things resolved.' However, no follow-up public statement, policy letter, or floor speech specifically addressing RV industry tariff relief has been issued. He subsequently voted for the 'One Big Beautiful Bill' which maintained tariff authorities. Primary URL: https://abc57.com/news/rep-rudy-yakym-on-rv-industry-tariffs-and-town-halls Days silent: 121.
