The U.S. has significantly reduced proposed tariffs on 13 Italian pasta exporters, the Commerce Department said Wednesday. The pasta-makers previously faced a potential 92 percent duty after the agency determined they were selling their pasta at unfairly low prices. Proposed tariffs on Garofalo were cut down to 13.89 percent, while those on La Molisana were reduced to 2.26 percent. The other 11 companies now face a 9.09 percent tariff. The decision to ease pasta tariffs comes as President Trump separately opted to delay duties on imported furniture Wednesday. The president signed a proclamation pushing back the tariff hike by one year, citing "ongoing productive negotiations."
