“On March 4, the Trump Administration implemented 25% tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico, along with an additional 10% tariff on imports from China. As a domestic industry comprised primarily of small and family-owned businesses, we appreciate the administration’s commitment to strengthening American industry and economic competitiveness. Recognizing that national and regional production of cement and aggregates limits domestic supply, we are concerned about the potential impact these tariffs could have on the ready mixed concrete industry.”
“NRMCA’s Government Affairs team, alongside our partners in the aggregates, asphalt and cement industries, is actively engaging with the administration and policymakers to ensure they understand how these tariffs could affect residential, commercial, and public works construction. We remain committed to working collaboratively with the Trump Administration and Congress to find a solution that supports both our industry and broader economic growth. We are hopeful for a swift and constructive resolution that ensures continued investment in American infrastructure and development.”
