during the debate the vice president described Trump's proposed tariffs as a sales tax on middle class families today the Biden Administration announced new tariffs on about $18 billion worth of Chinese Goods that will go into effect in 2 weeks so can you talk about whether these new tariffs are fundamentally different from what Trump has proposed and how so the 301 tariff the tariffs so look we made an announcement uh this morning as you just uh that went out early this morning and I think uh the president when he back in May uh when he was announcing that he was going to take action uh he said very clearly he was going to do that to protect Americans uh workers and businesses from China's unfair trade uh practices and that's something a commitment that he made and he spoke to back in in May and the comparison as you're asking me uh the Trump Administration the last Administration uh their trade deal with China fail to increase uh boost American manufacturing and what the president's economic agenda what we've been trying to do for almost four years now and we've seen some results here uh is nearly $1 trillion of new Investments here in America manufacturing investment has hit record highs is as it goes to the specifics of it obviously USR will have more uh information on that uh but the president made a commitment he's keeping to his commitment and if you can see what his economic agenda has actually done Manufacturing ing businesses uh and how that um how that lines up uh with China and what China what it what China has uh how his how his agenda has affected uh uh China's um Behavior Uh and I think that matters I'm sorry I should have been more clear how is it not a sales tax on all the goods that people buy every day look what we're trying to do is making sure that we're protecting American workers and businesses that's what we're doing us strr can certain get into more details and specifics uh to your question but our you know our commitment and I think it shows in the president's economic uh policy as I just laid out and what how uh how the annual trade deficit with China is the lowest is the lowest in the decade lower than any year during the last Administration uh and so what we're trying to do is eliminate China's unfair practices and we've seen the results of that that was the commitment that this President made in May and that's the commitment that will continue and this is about American workers and businesses and we're going to certainly continue to deal with China's unfair Trade Practices and that's what you're saying
