AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would cancel Presidential Proclamation 11059 of August 26, 2026, titled "Further Ensuring Affordable Beef for the American Consumer," so that it has no legal effect. It would also bar the use of federal funds to carry out that proclamation. In addition, the bill would prohibit the President or any other official from waiving, suspending, or reducing tariffs, duties, or other fees on imported beef or beef products. Such reductions could happen only if Congress passes them into law or declares a state of emergency regarding the U.S. domestic beef supply.
