Trump released a message for World Trade Week about trade policies that put American workers first. He says that for a long time, other countries were allowed to flood the U.S. with cheap products. He believes this hurt local businesses and caused many factories to close down.
The message explains that using taxes on imported goods, called tariffs, has helped bring manufacturing back to the country. Trump says these taxes have led to trillions of dollars in new investments. This has helped reopen factories and create more jobs for people in their own communities.
The administration has made more than 20 new trade deals with other countries. These deals are meant to help American companies sell more goods around the world. The goal is to lower the prices of common items like food, medicine, and tools by making sure there is a steady supply of products.
This trade plan focuses on making the country less dependent on foreign nations for important supplies. By making more things at home, the government hopes to keep the economy strong and protect the interests of regular citizens.
