ORGANIZATIONS IN THIS STORY

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has announced that U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has collected $106.1 billion in customs revenue since President Trump assumed office. A significant portion of this, amounting to $81.5 billion, stems from tariffs introduced by the Trump Administration.

Efforts by DHS and CBP have focused on ensuring full collection of customs duties and tariffs, achieving a success rate exceeding 99.5%. Since the start of the Trump Administration, CBP has undertaken enforcement actions that secured an additional $16.3 billion through targeted reviews of over 35,000 shipments identified as high-risk for duty evasion or subject to additional payments.

"DHS and CBP are successfully implementing President Trump’s historic America First trade agenda," stated a Senior DHS official. "We are proud to help President Trump make America richer and reverse a broken trade system that resulted in millions of jobs shipped overseas and made us dependent on foreign adversaries for essential goods. This administration will always put the American first."
