NAHB noted that 25% of building materials come from Canada and
Mexico.
The National Association of Homebuilders (NAHB) sent a letter to
President Trump Friday asking for tariff exemptions on building
materials from Canada and Mexico. The letter follows a Trump
announcement that the U.S. was levying tariffs of 25% on
Canadian and Mexican imports that would go into effect on
Saturday, which would hit homebuilders hard.
