House Small Business Committee Chairman Donald Manzullo (R-IL),
invited small business owners who use steel to testify before
the Committee on market conditions since the imposition of
30% tariffs on steel in March by the Bush Administration.
Downstream, small business owners in the U.S. are facing extensive
lead times, supply shortages – including those created
by domestic mills putting customers on allocation — broken
contracts with suppliers and skyrocketing prices. These problems
have created an unsustainable business environment for small
steel-consuming firms who, heretofore, have been globally
competitive and steady sources of economic and job growth
in their communities.
