Unpacking the Rhetoric and Myths about Tariffs

Tariffs, when applied strategically, are a valuable tool for supporting American manufacturing and competitiveness.

However, the devil is in the details, and the success of tariffs in meeting these objectives depends on how they are deployed.

Rethink Trade closely monitors U.S. tariff policy debates and provides expert analysis through reports, policy briefs, and events to educate the public and policymakers to promote policies that prioritize the public interest.
