President Donald Trump said on July 3 that he would begin sending letters to U.S. trading partners “probably tomorrow” to set their tariff levels.

During a press briefing beside Air Force One after the House of Representatives finally passed his massive tax cut and spending bill, Trump said that his administration is working on a “couple of other deals” but that he is inclined to send letters out and “say what tariffs they’re going to be paying.”
