DOC to Investigate Impact of Wood Imports on National Security

Sterling, VA, April 4, 2025-"President Trump directed the U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC) to investigate how imports of wood products affect national security,” according to the Decorative Hardwoods Association. 

“DHA provided expert insights, highlighting the negative impact of unfair trade practices from China and other countries in Asia on our members and how unfair trade practices weaken our industry. DHA also wrote about how illegally and unsustainably harvested Russian wood has infiltrated the global supply chain and argued for a ban on Russian wood products imported from any country.”
