American Primary Aluminum Association Applauds President Trump's Announcement of a 50% Tariff on All Foreign Aluminum Imports
- On April 30, 2025, the Trump administration enacted an interim final rule raising aluminum and steel tariffs to 50 percent in the United States.
- This tariff increase follows the revival of a tariff dialogue system from the Tariff Act of 1789 allowing manufacturers to request product additions during three annual two-week windows.
- The new Inclusion process restores direct communication between U.S. Manufacturers and the government, removing previous requirements to prove below-cost pricing or subsidies by foreign rivals.
- President Trump announced that the previous 25 percent tariff was insufficient, and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick describes the process as the first straightforward tariff dialogue in 95 years.
- This tariff restoration signals a return to protecting domestic industries, potentially benefiting American manufacturers and small businesses by emphasizing industrial growth and national self-reliance.
