Representatives Don Bacon and Ro Khanna are to introduce bipartisan legislation that would exempt coffee products from any tariffs, spokespeople for the lawmakers told Reuters. Brazil used to supply a third of all the coffee used in the U.S., but shipments dried up since a 50% tariff was imposed on Brazilian imports at the end of July. Coffee PricesRoasted coffee prices at grocery stores in the U.S. rose 20.9% in August from a year ago, according to Bureau of Labor Statistics data. The bill seeks to exempt coffee from any tariffs imposed after January 19, 2025, including roasted and decaffeinated coffee, as well as coffee husks, skins, and coffee substitutes containing coffee in any proportion. A spokesperson for Khanna told Reuters the legislation would be introduced Friday.
