Nov. 14, 2025, Fairfax, Va.—Americans for Limited Government Executive Director Robert Romano today issued the following statement urging President Donald Trump to use his trade and tariff negotiation powers to get the European Union to repeal Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD):
“On Nov. 13, the EU voted to take steps to protect business growth by removing damaging provisions from its CSDDD law — a positive step, but not nearly enough. The directive still extends the EU’s reach far beyond its borders, forcing American companies to bear unnecessary reporting and compliance costs that weaken their global competitiveness and make them vulnerable in the face of foreign adversaries. The Trump administration should use its full trade and tariff negotiating power to force the European Union to fully repeal CSDDD.”
