| Biden to exempt tariffs on solar panels from Southeast Asian countries for 24 months -source | |
| 2022-06-06 | |
| [Daily Mail, where America gets its news] U.S. President Joe Biden will issue a proclamation on Monday that will allow solar panels to be imported to the United States from Thailand, Malaysia, Cambodia and Vietnam without risk of tariffs for a 24-month period, a source familiar with the matter told Reuters. The action comes amid concern about the impact of the U.S. Commerce Department's months-long investigation into whether imports of solar panels from the four Southeast Asian nations are circumventing tariffs on goods made in China.

| #3 Obviously a nod to his 'Chardonnay' voting crowd. You think the people now being hit by high energy bills could afford these, just like that 60K electric car. |
