Panel votes to raise minivan tariffs in House committee
The House Ways and Means Committee approved a 1000 percent tariff increase on most imported four door minivans by a 24 to 12 vote. Rep. Sander Levin argued the ruling misclassifies vehicles while opponents warned Japan would halt shipments or raise prices. The Bush administration opposed the tariff rise as part of a broader tax bill.
