Wyden Says Foreign Companies Not Playing by the Rules

Oregon Senator Ron Wyden says far too many foreign companies are getting away with not paying duties and tariffs on goods shipped to the U.S. Senator Wyden says its time these duty and tariff laws are enforced. “I believe we're gonna get legislation passed soon. It will be bipartisan on behalf of the hard workers so they're not victimized by trade cheats.” Wyden and Republican Senator Olympia Snow of Maine are co-sponsoring legislation that will hold customs accountable to investigate foreign companies not paying tariffs and duties. Wyden is in Bend today. He'll be at the Bend Senior Center this morning and speaking at the Oxford Hotel for the Central Oregon City Club at noon.
