US tariffs and enforcement and CBP

The majority of American importers adhere to the rules and pay the required tariffs, but a subset employs various strategies to circumvent full compliance. This non-compliance raises concerns about the integrity of tariff enforcement and its impact on the U.S. economy. The Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agency is tasked with ensuring adherence, but challenges in enforcement highlight the need for more stringent oversight. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for policymakers to devise effective strategies that balance trade regulation with economic fairness.
