President Donald Trump delayed tariff increases on upholstered furniture, kitchen cabinets and vanities, easing the pace of his levies as voter frustration over price levels continues to simmer.

The White House published a fact sheet on the presidential proclamation late Wednesday, while Trump hosted a New Year’s Eve party at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida.
