"President Trump's decision to levy a 10% tariff on another $300 billion of imports from China will do additional harm to US consumers, producers and workers," writes Professor Mary Lovely. "This new bundle of taxes falls heavily on final goods, such as clothing, shoes, household goods and baby products. If the tariffs start on September 1st, as suggested by the president's tweet, shoppers will see the impact immediately, as they begin their back-to-school shopping." Lovely's op-ed titled "Trump's new tariffs will cause more pain for Americans" was published by CNN. 08/06/19
