(CNN) \u2014 During the past year, President Donald Trump has imposed sweeping and steep tariffs on most imported goods with the intent to reduce trade deficits and bolster US-based manufacturing.<\/p>\n
The near-term effects have been monumental both in and outside of the United States by reshaping global trade, raising the effective tariff rate to levels not seen in more than a century, upending the regular course of business and supply chains, and driving uncertainty as well as costs higher for some businesses and consumers.<\/p>\n
The massive shift in US trade policy hasn\u2019t come without some twists, with one of the biggest occurring last week: The US Supreme Court ruled that Trump exceeded his authority with how he imposed some tariffs. Trump responded by announcing plans to institute a 15% global tariff.<\/p>\n
While it remains to be seen how the latest shifts will play out, we want to hear how you have been affected this past year.<\/p>\n
In what ways have tariffs directly impacted you? Have you held off on making certain purchases, curtailed your spending or made other decisions?<\/p>\n
If you own a business, how have tariffs affected your operations, sales and supply chains? Have you had to pull back on hiring or even laid off some workers?<\/p>\n
If you\u2019d be willing to share your experience with a CNN reporter for possible inclusion in an upcoming article, we\u2019d like to hear from you.<\/p>\n
