Washington, DC, March 05, 2018 -- Statement by John Bozzella, President and CEO, Global Automakers on behalf of Here for America
“In just the last week, the auto industry has been threatened with increased duties on cars from Europe, major tariff increases on steel and aluminum imports, and now linking these tariffs to the future of NAFTA. Ill-considered actions like these could reverse all the recent progress made by the U.S. auto manufacturing industry, endangering American jobs, raising prices for consumers, harming global competitiveness and inviting retaliation by our trading partners. Thanks to trade, we have 13 companies building millions of cars and trucks in America today. Why would we want to mess this up?”
