U.S. Consumers Concerned About Economic Impact on Homebuyers If New Proposed Duties Are Imposed on Softwood Lumber From Canada ACAH - PRNewswire
American Consumers for Affordable Homes (ACAH) strongly believes that the U.S. government must consider the economic impact of any so-called deal or proposal related to current duties imposed on Canadian Softwood lumber imports into the U.S., before they continue to push the burden caused by protectionist lumber companies onto the backs of first-time homebuyers, seniors, and other Americans who pay the cost for lumber duties. The proposal announced by the Department of Commerce will significantly harm U.S. consumers to the benefit of protectionist domestic lumber producers and landowners.
