Trump Administration Exempts Bibles From China Tariffs

Christianity Today reports:

The Good Book got good news from the Trump administration today: America’s Bibles—most of which are printed in China and imported to the United States—are now exempt from the burgeoning trade war between the two nations.

With a 10-percent hike on $300 billion worth of Chinese goods looming next month, the Office of the US Trade Representative (USTR) posted two long lists of items: one of imports from China that will become subject to tariffs on September 1, and one of imports whose proposed tariffs will now be delayed until December 15. Missing from both lists: Bibles.

Well as long as there as are bibles that is alright. People will be able to pray away the pain of the tariffs on everything else they wish to purchase!
