Stop Tariffs on Printers & Publishers today welcomed the ITC’s decision to terminate duties currently being applied to uncoated groundwood paper, or newsprint, imports from Canada.
We applaud the International Trade Commission (ITC) for today reaching a final, negative determination that Canadian imports of uncoated groundwood paper, which includes newsprint used by newspapers, do not cause material harm to the U.S. paper industry.
Rep. Kristi Noem, R-SD and Charlie Crist (D-FL) yesterday introduced legislation to suspend tariffs on Canadian imports of uncoated groundwood paper.
The U.S. government recently imposed tariffs on imported uncoated groundwood pulp and paper — what the industry knows as newsprint. We need you to fight these unfair taxes. These discussion points will help you talk to your Congressmen and -women and your Senators about the PRINT Act to end these undue tariffs.
Today, in an effort to protect printers and publishers from unwarranted tariffs, Senators Susan Collins (R-ME) and Angus King (I-ME) introduced the “Protecting Rational Incentives in Newsprint Trade Act of 2018,” or “PRINT Act.”
Today, members of the printing, publishing and paper-producing industries are announcing the formation of Stop Tariffs on Printers & Publishers (STOPP), a coalition to fight proposed countervailing and anti-dumping duties on imports of Canadian uncoated groundwood paper.
Today, more than 1,100 newspapers across the U.S. called on Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross to heavily scrutinize the anti-dumping and countervailing duty petitions filed by paper mill, North Pacific Paper Company (NORPAC).
