Beth Benike, Minnesota's Small Business Person of the Year, is trying to crowdfund $229,000 to pay what she describes as the "ransom," or tariff on her products stranded in China.

Busy Baby, a company founded by Emily Wells that produces mats designed to keep babies occupied and safe, is facing financial difficulties due to a 25% tariff imposed on goods imported from China.
