President Donald Trump announced new 25% tariffs on all steel and aluminum imports into the United States - a move that mirrors a similar policy he enacted during his first term. POLITICO’s Ben Lefebvre breaks down the potential impact of these new tariffs on energy-related industries and the lessons learned from the first-term tariffs. Plus, President Trump declared that his administration would reverse former President Joe Biden's efforts to make a host of consumer products more efficient.
