Continuing China Tariffs Will Reduce US GDP by $1 Trillion in 10 Years, Chamber Says in New Study

Section 301 tariffs on Chinese imports would reduce U.S. GDP by up to $1 trillion within a decade if left in place, concluded a Rhodium Group study for the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. The tariffs are “eroding” U.S. “competitiveness” in information and communication technology and “undermining globalized supply chains,” the study says. The report is to be released March 15.
