Greer Was Scheduled for Nov. 12 ‘Squawk Box’ Appearance as Tariffs Faced Court Challenges

U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer was scheduled to appear on “Squawk Box” on the morning of Nov. 12 as President Donald Trump’s tariffs faced political scrutiny and court challenges.

Democrats are likely to make the duties a leading target after winning control of the House and Senate in the Nov. 3 midterm elections. The tariffs have fueled trade disputes with several U.S. economic partners.

Multiple court cases challenge some of Trump’s largest tariffs, including broad Section 301 duties and 50% tariffs on a range of Canadian goods. Separately, Greer’s office is investigating excess manufacturing capacity abroad. The probe could lead to additional tariffs.
