Ms. Tokuda (for herself, Ms. Titus, Mr. Goldman of New York, Mr. Costa, Mr. Carson, and Mr. Lieu) introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee on Ways and Means
To provide for the termination of tariffs with respect to certain countries and other jurisdictions under Executive Orders 14257 and 14326.
Section 1. Short title
This Act may be cited as the Indo-Pacific Partner and Ally Tariff Repeal Act
.
Sec. 2. Sense of Congress
It is the sense of Congress that—
(1)
the United States should collaborate with Indo-Pacific allies and partners to establish a collective defense against the Chinese Communist Party’s nonmarket practices and coercive economic, military, and gray-zone actions;
(2)
imposing tariffs on Indo-Pacific allies and partners undermines that goal while inflicting costs on U.S. consumers and businesses; and
(3)
therefore, the tariffs established by Executive Order 14257 (90 Fed. Reg. 15041) and Executive Order 14326 (90 Fed. Reg. 37963) on Indo-Pacific partners and allies are counterproductive to America’s security and economic needs and should be repealed.

(a) In general
Effective on the date of the enactment of this Act, any tariff established pursuant to Executive Order 14257 (90 Fed. Reg. 15041) or Executive Order 14326 (90 Fed. Reg. 37963) with respect to the countries and other jurisdictions described in subsection (b) shall cease to have force or effect.
