Tariffs, that are taxes on imports, improve prices for importers who sometimes cross some or all of these prices onto their clients. Within the case of metal and aluminum, U.S. corporations rely closely on imports and the upper prices might harm producers and, in flip, customers.

“When we apply tariffs, we increase the cost of both imported metals and domestically produced metals, which increases the cost of production in the United States for all these downstream industries. We should expect a net decrease in manufacturing employment and production as the direct result of higher tariffs,” York stated.
