The Biden Administration increases tariffs on billions of dollars worth of Chinese goods.


The Biden administration has announced new measures to impose tariffs on a wide range of Chinese imports, including clothing, solar panels, electric vehicles, and steel. The move aims to protect American factories and address concerns about the country's reliance on Chinese products. The administration also plans to limit a trade rule that allowed over a billion packages from China to enter the US without tariffs, citing its negative impact on American manufacturers and the entry of illicit goods. Additionally, the administration will maintain and expand the tariffs imposed by the Trump administration on Chinese goods. These changes are expected to add tariffs ranging from 7.5% to 100% on tens of billions of dollars of trade from China. The proposed measures have sparked debate and opposition from various stakeholders, including lawmakers, online marketplaces, and industry groups. Critics argue that the changes could lead to increased costs for American consumers and create additional administrative burdens.
