WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, the top Republican on the House Ways and Means Committee Kevin Brady (R-TX) released the following statement applauding the Trump Administration’s announcement lifting tariffs on steel and aluminum products from Canada and Mexico:
“I applaud President Trump and Ambassador Lighthizer for lifting tariffs on steel and aluminum from Canada and Mexico without burdensome quotas.
“Canada and Mexico are strong allies and have taken significant steps to assure that trade-distorting and subsidized steel and aluminum from third countries will not surge into the U.S. market.
“With this crucial issue resolved, now is the time for Congress to advance USMCA - delay means the United States continues to lose out on more jobs, more customers for Made-in-America goods, and a stronger economy. Congress should take up this updated and modernized agreement, which will produce strong wins for America."
