Information

Join us for an insightful discussion with Dr. Scott Baier, an expert in international economics, as he analyzes the rising use of tariffs during President Trump’s second term and their far-reaching effects. With new trade restrictions targeting Canada, Mexico, China, Colombia, and the EU, along with sweeping tariffs on steel and aluminum, Dr. Baier will break down the economic rationale behind these policies, their effectiveness, and their impact on businesses and consumers. He will also revisit the tariffs from Trump’s first term and explore how these renewed trade battles may reshape industries in the Upstate and across South Carolina.
