Lumber Supply and Housing Affordability
With a level playing field, the U.S. lumber industry is able to expand production. Since the filing of the trade cases by the U.S. industry in 2016, U.S. sawmill investment and capacity expansion has been robust. The U.S. industry has produced an additional 20.5 billion board feet of lumber through 2022, averaging 3.4 billion a year of added output. These increases have more than offset any decline in unfairly traded Canadian imports and provide enough lumber to build 1.4 million single-family homes. The enforcement of U.S. trade laws will maximize long-term domestic production and lumber availability produced by U.S. workers to build U.S. homes.
