## Resource

Starting Friday, the U.S. slams new tariffs on goods from 60 countries—most hit with a 12.5% tax to pressure them into cracking down on forced labor, while allies like the UK and Canada get a lighter 10% rate for already having rules in place. It’s not just about ethics: officials argue these tariffs level the playing field by targeting nations that don’t enforce their own labor laws. Exemptions include oil, gas, steel, and goods covered by existing trade deals. This move replaces an expiring 10% tariff and marks a bold push to revive tariffs after legal setbacks, with the administration eyeing more trade actions—including investigations into manufacturing overcapacity—despite warnings from economists about rising prices and slower growth.
