On May 14th, 2024, the USTR Announced strategic adjustments to Section 301 tariffs following a four-year review. U.S. trade representative Katherine Tai initially backed the retention of the Section 301 tariffs for Chinese products. However, there has been a recent strain on U.S. commerce. Due to this, President Biden supervised Tai in either revising or introducing new tariffs.
