Tariffs on Chinese-Made Products Expand

摘要

The U.S.will place a 10 percent tariff on S300 billion worth of products made in China that pass through U.S.borders.”We are disappointed the administration is doubling down on a flawed tariff strategy that is already slowing U.S.economic growth,creating uncertainty and discouraging investment,”David French,vice president of government relations at the National Retail Federation,says.”These additional tariffs will only threaten U.S.jobs and raise costs for American families on everyday goods.”The initial round placed 10 to 25 percent tariffs on $200 billion worth of Chinese products.Those products included many paint and decorating mainstays,like acrylic and vinyl paints and varnishes,filters and wooden paintbrush handles,among others.
