Steel and other manufacturing industries are the backbone of our economy. A strong manufacturing sector creates significant benefits for society, including good-paying jobs, investment in research and development, critical materials for our national defense, and highvalue exports.
Industry Position: A more effective U.S. trade policy is needed to level the playing field as well as preserve and strengthen our nation’s manufacturing base. The U.S. Government must expand rules-based trade; keep our laws against unfair trade strong; strictly enforce trade agreements; and use all means to prevent and address unfair trade and injurious surges.”
