The National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) said the Commerce Department’s decision to levy a 20 percent countervailing duty on Canadian lumber imports will raise prices on housing and harm U.S. consumers.
"NAHB is deeply disappointed in this short-sighted action by the U.S. Department of Commerce that will ultimately do nothing to resolve issues causing the U.S.-Canadian lumber trade dispute but will negatively harm American consumers and housing affordability," said NAHB Chairman Granger MacDonald, a homebuilder and developer from Kerrville, Texas.
Homebuilders said that 33 percent of the lumber used in the U.S. last year was imported and more than 95 percent of that supply came from Canada.
yeah yeah I know wingnuts, the NAHB is a Dem fascist front group picking on your orange hero......... preemptive strike
