Summary
The U.S. Postal Service is suspending inbound packages from China and Hong Kong due to new tariffs imposed by President Trump. This change affects Chinese e-commerce firms like Temu and Shein who have relied on a trade loophole called "de minimis." The suspension could lead to increased costs for sellers and higher prices for U.S. consumers.
