FPA Signs AFT’s Coalition Letter for the Extension of Section 301 China Tariffs Exclusions and Four-Year Review

On behalf of the undersigned members of Americans for Free Trade, we are writing to request that USTR provide an immediate extension for the limited tariff exclusions and COVID exclusions from the section 301 tariffs on products from China. The exclusions are currently set to expire on December 31, just 20 days from now. The pattern of making last-minute announcements regarding the tariff exclusions exacerbates uncertainty for U.S. companies who need to make business decisions months in advance. Absent an immediate announcement of the outcome in the four-year tariff review, we urge USTR to extend the expiring exclusions now.
