The 10% tariff covers more than $200 billion worth of Chinese imports, including plumbing-related products and components
Plumbing Manufacturers International (PMI) today expressed disappointment on behalf of its members with the decision by the Trump Administration and the United States Trade Representative (USTR) to impose tariffs of 10% on more than $200 billion worth of Chinese imports, including plumbing-related products and components.
“Imposing tariffs unnecessarily penalizes plumbing fixture and fittings manufacturers, their employees, and the American consumer,” PMI CEO and Executive Director Kerry Stackpole said. “Ultimately, the American consumer will pay the price of new tariffs, which are effectively taxes that will hurt job creation in the commercial development, residential construction, retailing, and the home improvement industry.”
