The holiday season could be a little less bright this year if more tariffs are imposed on imports from China, according to a retail industry representative. Businesses and industry associations expressed concern about tariffs imposed on imports from China and requested exemptions from US tariffs at a public hearing in Washington on Tuesday. On July 6, the US imposed 25 percent tariffs on products worth $34 billion from China. This week's hearings are for another $16 billion on Chinese exports. Products such as Christmas lights, cling wrap, soap dispensers, fog machines, and showerheads are on the tariff list.
