Summary
The government is quickly checking if stopping extra taxes on mattresses from China would hurt U.S. mattress makers again soon.

Antidumping Review Could Change Duties
The Commission has scheduled an expedited five-year review to decide whether to revoke the antidumping duty order on mattresses from China. The review will determine whether removing that duty would likely cause U.S. mattress makers to continue or return to being materially injured. Mattress importers, domestic manufacturers, and shoppers could see changes to prices, production, or jobs depending on the review's outcome.
