(Reuters) -President Donald Trump said on Friday his administration will conduct a “major” tariff investigation on furniture entering the United States.
“Furniture coming from other Countries into the United States will be Tariffed at a Rate yet to be determined,” Trump said in a post on Truth Social.
Trump said the investigation will be completed within the next 50 days.
“This will bring the Furniture Business back to North Carolina, South Carolina, Michigan, and States all across the Union,” Trump said.
Furniture would be the latest imported products targeted for a national security investigation by the Trump administration. On Thursday, it announced a national security probe into imported wind turbines and has previously targeted copper and other metals.
