Ending de minimis duty-free imports protects American workers!

What You Say

Closing the de minimis loophole can address underpriced imports and fentanyl packaging concerns. It also raises consumer prices and customs friction. Trade-offs exist; pretending it is costless patriotism is marketing.

The Stab

Tariffs are taxes. Someone pays them at checkout.
