Event Overview
On April 2, President Donald Trump announced “Liberation Day,” signalling his intent to impose tariffs on at least 90 countries. Trump has said his sweeping tariffs plan will generate revenue, while also countering allegedly unfair trading practices.
Speakers this week will discuss whether the President can successfully negotiate his tariffs plan, especially in the key economies of China, India, Brazil, and Mexico. Speakers will also discuss the impacts of tariffs for American consumers, the labor force, and small businesses.
