Trump postpones tariff increase on furniture and cabinets for one year

President Donald Trump signed a proclamation on New Year’s Eve delaying increased tariffs on upholstered furniture, kitchen cabinets, and vanities for one year, citing ongoing trade discussions. While the current 25% tariff remains in place, the scheduled increases to 30% and 50% for these goods will not take effect as planned on January 1. Trump supports these tariffs to strengthen American industry and national security. This decision reflects the unpredictable nature of his tariff policies since returning to office.
