WASHINGTON, June 14 — The White House is discussing possible changes to some “irresponsible” tariffs imposed on Chinese goods by former President Donald Trump that raised costs on US families and businesses, press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said on Tuesday.
Trump imposed tariffs of up to 25 per cent on hundreds of billions of dollars worth of Chinese imports, including many consumer goods from bicycles to Bluetooth devices and apparel. “We’re discussing this, and working to align these haphazard tariffs and our priorities to safeguard the interests of our workers and critical industries,” she told reporters aboard Air Force One as Biden flew to Philadelphia for a union convention.
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen last week told lawmakers that the administration was actively looking to “reconfigure” tariffs on Chinese imports but warned that such cuts would not be a “panacea” for easing high inflation.
Somedays i wonder if our country fought against the CTs sacrificing lives in vain. Communist are going to be communists and people seem to forget that but still very ill with Trump derangement syndrome.
