Un total de 58 agrupaciones de empresas hicieron un exhorto a los líderes de los comités de Finanzas del Senado y de Medios y Arbitrios de la Cámara de Representantes para equilibrar el poder en materia comercial del Congreso y del Ejecutivo de Estados Unidos.
«El amplio uso unilateral de aranceles por parte del Poder Ejecutivo está trastornando el equilibrio histórico entre el Congreso y el Poder Ejecutivo, que ha funcionado eficazmente durante muchas décadas para fortalecer nuestra economía y aumentar las oportunidades de exportación para los fabricantes, proveedores de servicios, ganaderos y agricultores, y debe ser reevaluado», escribieron en una carta.
