Bost on Trade

A new trade deal with Mexico is in place, one with Canada is in the works, and the president has his sights set on doing the same with the European Union. That is the summary from Congressman Mike Bost of Murphysboro, who says he likes what he sees as far as leveling the economic playing field with our country's trade partners. Bost says when American goods are sent to Europe, there is anywhere from an 8-25% tariff on each product, while European products have about a 2% tariff coming into the U.S.
 

 

 
Bost says it is vitally important to restore free and fair trade with the E.U.
