New York, N.Y. – Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) today released the following statement following the Biden Administration’s announcement of new tariffs on Chinese EVs:
“The Chinese Communist Party has shown they will stop at nothing to steal our intellectual property and undermine the American economy, including providing deep subsidies to their companies. Because the CCP does not compete fairly, imposing new tariffs is a necessary step towards addressing the unfair imbalance of China's trade relationship with the United States. This action is vital to protect American workers, American manufacturers, American innovation, and our national security.”
