The Trump administration plans to roll out tariffs against Mexico, Canada, and China on Saturday in response to an influx of illegal fentanyl into the United States, according to the White House.
Diana Stancy is a politics reporter with Fox News Digital covering the White House.
These countries will face these tariffs because they have allowed an "unprecedented invasion of illegal fentanyl that is killing American citizens," according to Leavitt.
"The president will be implementing tomorrow a 25% tariff on Mexico, 25% tariffs on Canada, and a 10% tariff on China for the illegal fentanyl they have sourced and allowed to distribute into our country, which has killed tens of millions of Americans," Leavitt told reporters Friday. "These are promises made and promises kept."
