WASHINGTON – Today, global tech trade association 91proÊÓÆµ President and CEO Jason Oxman reacted to U.S. President Donald Trump’s announcement instituting tariffs on imports from Canada, Mexico, and China:
“Trade is crucial to American competitiveness and innovation, and for the prosperity of workers, businesses of all sizes, and consumers. We urge the Trump Administration to aim for clear, constructive outcomes in its negotiations with foreign governments, avoid trade restrictions and weakened North American economic ties to the extent possible, and roll back the tariffs when outcomes are achieved. We also encourage President Trump and his team to work to prevent harms that sustained tariffs would have on U.S. consumers, workers, manufacturers, and exporters. As these actions are implemented, it is essential to bring industry and stakeholders to the table to help the government reach its desired result, limit unintended consequences, and develop a holistic and successful trade policy approach.”
