Trade takes center stage again in Washington, D.C., and around the globe as President Trump reached several agreements with China and other nations in Asia. China's government has agreed to resume purchasing hardwood logs. On November 5, the Supreme Court will hear the case challenging reciprocal tariffs. DHA continues to work to influence trade policy by providing insights and context in our comments to the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative on foreign trade barriers and the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Free Trade Agreement.

If you have questions or comments, contact me. I look forward to hearing from you.
