Discussion on American Shipbuilding, New York City Congestion Pricing, and Trade Tariffs

Published | Video Starts at 04:43

Are you concerned that the tariff pause that's going into effect is not going to extend to the auto industry? There's the vehicle tariff and there's also the parts tariff that's supposed to take effect next month. So When we produce a car in America and we send it to Europe, we are charged 10% tariff on the American made car. When you have a European made car that comes to the US we charge them two and a half percent in a tariff. Right? So why is that fair? (04:43–04:52)
