Congressional Steel Caucus urges US administration to maintain Section 232 steel & aluminum tariffs during ongoing trade negotiations. The bipartisan coalition cites OECD predictions of global overcapacity reaching 721 million metric tons by 2027. China's record 118 million metric ton steel exports in 2024 displaced global production capacity. The caucus argues tariffs are critical for national security & preventing unfair trade practices. Previous trade agreements proved insufficient to address production surges & global steel market flooding affecting American manufacturers.
