On Monday, President Donald Trump announced a 25% tariff on steel and aluminum imports via executive order.

Key Details: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Japan, Mexico, South Korea, the European Union, Ukraine, and the United Kingdom are exempt from the tariff. Additional 10% tariffs will remain in effect on Chinese imports. Tariff negotiations continue with Canada and Mexico, two of the US's largest sources of steel and aluminum imports.

Key Quotes: "Foreign nations have been flooding the United States market with cheap steel and aluminum, often subsidized by their governments," the order stated. "Foreign nations have been flooding the United States market with cheap steel and aluminum, often subsidized by their governments." The Wall Street Journal Editorial Board (Lean Right bias) said the move would "harm U.S. manufacturers and workers."

For Context: During the campaign, Trump touted using tariffs to revive domestic industry and boost the economy. He sees tariffs as a source of revenue to help lower the federal budget deficit and also a tool to force concessions on immigration. Critics worry they could harm trade relations while raising US consumer prices.

How the Media Covered it: Axios (Lean Left) noted that some economists have warned that tariffs would hurt U.S. consumers. National Review News (Lean Right) reported that steel tariffs are an "anti-China move"; China is the world's largest steel exporter, though little is sent to the US.

President Donald Trump will announce Monday new 25 percent tariffs on all steel and aluminum entering the United States, including from Canada and Mexico.

Canada and Mexico are two of the U.S.’s biggest steel trading partners, and Canada is the biggest supplier of aluminum metal into the country.

UPI reports Trump told reporters Sunday aboard Air Force One of his plan by declaring, “Any steel coming into the United States is going to have a 25 percent tariff. Aluminum, too.”

President Trump said he will announce 25 percent tariffs on steel and aluminum on Monday, adding that he would also kick off reciprocal tariffs in the days after.

Trump said that the steel and aluminum tariffs would impact “everybody” when asked what countries would be effected.

“Any steel coming into the United States is going to have a 25 percent tariff — aluminum too,” Trump told reporters. “Twenty-five percent … for both.”

He added that details of the reciprocal tariffs will be announced on Tuesday or Wednesday in a news conference.

President Donald Trump said he will announce on Monday that the United States will impose 25% tariffs on all steel and aluminum imports, including from Canada and Mexico, as well as other import duties later in the week.

“Any steel coming into the United States is going to have a 25% tariff,” he told reporters Sunday on Air Force One as he flew from Florida to New Orleans to attend the Super Bowl. When asked about aluminum, he responded, “aluminum, too” will be subject to the trade penalties.
