Why Tariffs On China Still Matter: Adam Savit’s Strategic Analysis

Adam Savit, Director of the China Policy Initiative at the America First Policy Institute (AFPI), provides a detailed analysis of the ongoing China tariffs debate. He explains how Trump-era tariffs helped counter Chinese economic coercion, protected American manufacturing, and addressed intellectual property theft. Savit emphasizes why similar or stronger measures remain necessary under the current administration to preserve U.S. economic sovereignty, support domestic job creation, and deter CCP overreach in global markets.
