U.S. ends tariffs, duties on some steel imports
From the Associated Press
U.S. trade regulators revoked most of the 13-year-old tariffs and duties against imports of a high-grade steel used in cars, giving a coalition of U.S. and Japanese automakers a holiday surprise.
The International Trade Commission voted to revoke all tariffs and subsidy-countering duties against carbon steel plate from 16 countries. In a special victory for automakers, they also voted to end tariffs on corrosion-resistant steel sheet imported from Canada, France, Australia and Japan.
