Digital Trade Promotion Act of 2025

This bill would allow the President to negotiate, enter into, and enforce digital trade agreements with other countries. Each agreement would have to cover topics such as the free flow of data across borders, a ban on customs duties on electronic transmissions, a ban on discriminatory taxes on digital services, and a ban on forcing companies to hand over source code as a condition of market access. The President would have to notify Congress 60 days before starting negotiations and report to Congress 60 days before entering an agreement. An agreement could not take effect until a congressional review period of at least 30 days ends without Congress passing a joint resolution of disapproval. The U.S. Trade Representative would monitor whether partner countries comply, and the President could suspend an agreement or take other action if a country does not comply.
