On this episode of Talking with One Voice, co-hosts Caitlin Sickles, Paul Nathanson, and Omar Nashashibi dive into the evolving landscape of tariffs, trade policy, and tax changes shaping the manufacturing industry. The team examines how the Trump administration is using tariffs as a tool for industrial strategy, the lack of country exemptions, and the expected economic impact across various sectors. With uncertainty surrounding government funding and the potential for a shutdown, the group discusses how businesses are navigating these challenges. Finally, they tackle the future of tax policy, particularly its effects on manufacturing rates, and how companies can prepare for the shifting economic and political landscape.
