Earlier this week we covered Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo’s appearance in front of a Senate Appropriations subcommittee, where she fielded questions about Commerce’s anti-circumvention investigation into solar panel imports from southeast Asia. Lawmakers told her to hurry up with the investigating because the import slowdown it’s allegedly causing is hurting the installation business.
We’ve written a lot about how this is a statutory issue and that the study of these imports that are purportedly made in China shouldn’t cut corners, which is exactly what the Secretary Raimondo said at the hearing.
