President Trump says imposing tariffs on steel would create more American jobs

  • 6 years ago
U.S. President Donald Trump is reportedly pushing to impose tariffs on steel imports in a bid to revive America's flagging steel industry.
At a recent meeting at the White House,... Trump said he's willing to slap substantial tariffs on steel imports even if costs a little more, saying more jobs would be created in the process.
He's reportedly pushing for a 25-percent tariff on all steel imports, a move that could spark a trade war with other countries.
The U.S. Commerce Department has recommended President Trump to curb on steel and aluminum imports from South Korea, China and other nations.
President Trump has not made a final decision, but must make up his mind on steel and aluminum imports by April 11th and April 19th, respectively.
