President Trump to Impose Steel Tariffs

March 6, 2018 - On Thursday, March 1, President Trump announced his intention to impose a 25% tariff on imported steel from all countries. The formal imposition is expected to take effect this week.

This finding, under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962, required the President to make a decision, one way or the other, on steel import tariffs by April 11, 2018.

October 31, 2017 - On September 8, President Trump announced his intent to nominate Paul Trombino III to be Administrator of the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA).
