President JoeBiden sets up post-election 'fight' as he drags out China tariffs decision
Those in favor of keeping the Trump-era tariffs in place say they have been successful in moving supply chains out of China, with the issue becoming a flashpoint in the race for control of Congress.
Rep. Marcy Kaptur , long an emphatic Biden supporter, has lately criticized the president, stating in a television advertisement that she’s been “fighting back” against him while “working with Republican Rob Portman” to protect the state’s jobs.The White House has been reviewing whether to lift tariffs on Chinese goods for months, with Biden telling reporters in May that rising consumer goods prices were being weighed in the decision process.
But as the November election nears, the president appears to be heeding the message from lawmakers and holding back. “After the election, it will be a fight,” one industry source told the Washington Examiner of the divide over whether to keep the measures in place. Tariff issues also divided the Trump administration.
