U.S. automakers who comply with the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) are getting a one-month exemption from the Trump administration’s tariffs that went into effect Tuesday, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt announced Wednesday.
"We spoke with the Big Three automakers," Leavitt confirmed. "We are going to give a one-month exemption on any autos coming through USMCA."
"Reciprocal tariffs will still go into effect on April 2, but at the request of the companies associated with USMCA, the president is giving them an exemption for one month so they are not at an economic disadvantage," Leavitt said.
She told reporters that Stellantis, Ford and General Motors were the companies Trump spoke with.
"They requested the call. They made the ask and the president is happy to do it," Leavitt added. "It's a one-month exemption."
