Following President Trump’s announcement delaying the proposed tariffs on products from Canada and Mexico, National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) 2024 Chairman of the Board and a custom homebuilder from Wichita, Kansas Carl Harris, issued a statement as follows:
“We commend President Trump for reaching an agreement with Canada and Mexico to delay the proposed tariffs, avoiding additional strain on a housing market already facing affordability challenges. Stability and certainty are essential for American businesses, consumers, and the strength of our economy. We urge all parties to remain committed to productive dialogue to prevent new tariffs on construction materials critical to housing our nation.”
