The U.S. is slapping new tariffs—up to 12.5%—on goods from 17 countries ahead of expiring global duties, citing forced labor in supply chains and fair wages for American workers. Canada, the EU, and Mexico face 10%, while China, Japan, and Australia hit 12.5%. Officials call it the largest labor rights action ever, with some nations lowering tariffs after pledging to ban forced labor. Coffee remains exempt, but new carveouts allow imports like Portuguese cork or gems. This follows a Supreme Court ruling and signals more tariffs ahead, targeting manufacturing overcapacity and drug pricing in places like Germany.
