Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would repeal Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930, a law that lets the President impose duties on imports from countries found to discriminate against U.S. trade. Any presidential proclamation issued under that section would have no force or effect. The President would be required to arrange refunds of tariffs or other duties collected because of actions taken under that section, including those collected before the bill becomes law. The bill also makes a related wording change to Section 337 of the same law.
