Letter to the Editor: Response to David Phelps Article on Threatened Dumping Suits
Written by John Packard
As Steel Market Update has mentioned in the past we encourage and welcome all viewpoints on topics. A recent letter written by David Phelps, the retired president of the American Institute for International Steel (AIIS), entitled “Anti-Dumping Cases Threatened, Now What?” elicited the following response:
“I appreciate the opportunity to comment on your April 1, 2014 article entitled “Anti-Dumping Cases Threatened, Now What?” by David Phelps. Assuming it was not some sort of April Fools’ Day joke, this article represents an unwarranted and misguided attack on U.S. trade remedy laws at a time when these laws are more critical than ever to the long-term health of U.S. manufacturing.
