President-Elect Threatens Day 1 Tariffs over Fentanyl, Immigration<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

President-Elect Donald Trump announced on social media plans to impose a 25% tariff on all imports from Canada and Mexico and a 10% tariff on all imports from China. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a post on Truth Social, the President elect said in part \u201cOn January 20th<\/sup>, as one of my first Executive Orders, I will sign all necessary documents to charge Mexico and Canada a 25% Tariff on ALL products coming into the United States and its ridiculous Open Borders.  This Tariff will remain in effect until such time as Drugs, in particular Fentanyl\u201d and all Illegal Aliens top this Invasion of our Country!\u201d  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum hinted<\/a> her country would retaliate.  Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau traveled to Mar a Lago to meet with President-elect Trump, saying it was a \u201cgood call\u201d and highlighting the positive benefits of U.S.-Canadian trade.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Observers note that the timing of this act could mean the President-elect intend to use the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA).  This would be noteworthy as it does not require an investigation, which prior tariff actions on China and steel and aluminum during the first Trump term did. IEEPA has not been used to impose tariffs previously, although President Trump did threaten tariffs on Mexico under IEEPA in 2019.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

ACMA President & CEO Cindy Squires shared insights on this development on\u00a0LinkedIn<\/a>. Please send relevant tariff lines impacted by this proposed action to\u00a0Daniel Neumann<\/a>\u00a0as soon as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
