Imagine giant metal skeletons used to carry shipping containers on trucks. These are called chassis! American companies that make these chassis are asking the government for help. They say that companies in Mexico, Thailand, and Vietnam are selling chassis much cheaper, hurting American businesses.
- American companies want higher taxes on chassis from other countries.
- They say these cheaper imports are unfair and hurt American jobs.
- This isn't the first time this has happened; a similar thing happened with Chinese chassis a few years ago.
