"Although President Trump signed a 'phase one' agreement with China in January, high tariffs remain on an original $350 billion in US imports," writes Professor Mary Lovely. "Getting rid of these tariffs will remove a painful yoke that had depressed American manufacturing and farming long before the coronavirus hit our shores. What's more, tariff rollbacks signal a desire to reduce mounting US-China trade tensions, offering a much-needed model of global cooperation at a time of shared crisis." Lovely's article "What Trump can do now to rescue America's factories and farms," was published by CNN. 04/02/20
