The Trump administration on Tuesday proposed imposing additional duties of 10% or 12.5% on imports from 60 economies after determining their failures to curb trade in goods made with forced labor are unreasonable and restrict US commerce.

The proposal from the US Trade Representative’s office is the latest finding from a Section 301 unfair trade practices investigation to be released as the Trump administration seeks to rebuild its emergency tariffs, which were struck down by a US Supreme Court decision in February.
