Leibowitz on Trade: Presidential Overreach?

Trade attorney and Steel Market Update contributor Lewis Leibowitz offers the following update on events in Washington:

The nation and the world saw a greater than normal number of presidential announcements in the past week. I debated Philip Bell, the president of the Steel Manufacturers Association, on issues related to Section 232 at the SMU Steel Summit last week. Phil is an able spokesman for the domestic steel producers’ point of view and I enjoyed this year’s version as well as all the previous ones.
