The Americans for Free Trade Coalition—which includes Outdoor Industry Association, Snowsports Industries America, Sports & Fitness Industry Association and many others—on Wednesday sent an “urgent request” to President Trump that he “postpone all tariff rate increases on Chinese goods that are scheduled to take effect this year.”

“These tariff rate increases – some starting as early as Sunday – come at the worst possible time, right in the middle of the busy holiday shipping period,” the letter reads. “Action is needed by you to protect American businesses, workers and consumers this holiday season.”

Other groups signing the letter include the National Ski & Snowboard Retailers Association National Sporting Goods Association, Footwear Distributors and Retailers of America, National Retail Federation and RV Industry Association.

“Our coalition represents every part of the U.S. economy including manufacturers, farmers and agribusinesses, retailers, technology companies, service suppliers, natural gas and oil companies, importers, exporters, and other supply chain stakeholders. Collectively, we support tens of millions of American jobs through our vast supply chains.”
