Horse trading and playing cute-sie at a time when businesses are gasping for
any kind of business is inappropriate to say the least.
Get with the program and get this thing renewed!
There are a lot of jobs and businesses on the line here… maybe even yours!!!!!

People traveling abroad buy these things there and bring them as gifts and it becomes difficult for customs to identify and duty them

Gsp program levels the field and gives local businesses a fair chance to compete with overseas retailers and helps businesses to remain competitive locally

Certain products like jewelry in 22k gold have investment val and is aeries of wealth for a lot if Asian people and levying duty on those products diminishes it’s investment value and hence loss of spending and other revenues to the govt like sales tax and income tax etc etc

Apart from the above businesses that are viable because of the GsP generate jobs and spend money in the US hence contributing to the economy
