White House Grants One-Month Tariff Exemption for US Automakers

President Donald Trump has approved a one-month tariff exemption for US automakers, allowing vehicles imported from Mexico and Canada to bypass newly imposed trade duties.

The exemption follows requests from Detroit’s top three automakers, who warned that tariffs could increase production costs and disrupt supply chains. The decision is aimed at providing temporary relief while trade negotiations continue.

Industry leaders have welcomed the move, emphasizing that it will help stabilize manufacturing operations and maintain competitive pricing. However, discussions on long-term trade policies are ongoing, with potential adjustments expected in the coming months.
