H.R. 10175, Congressional Trade Authority Restoration. Quorum's AI analysis reads it as a trade-off: gains for some, costs for others.
H.R. 10175 · Mixed
What it does
This bill would repeal Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930 and nullify tariffs or duties imposed by the President under that authority. Section 338 grants the President broad power to impose tariffs on imports based on national security or other grounds. Repealing it would strip the President of that unilateral tariff authority and void any tariffs already imposed under it.
The analysis names import-dependent retailers and manufacturers — and 2 more groups — among the beneficiaries.
The trade-off
Repealing Section 338 would eliminate the President's ability to impose tariffs on national security grounds, potentially constraining future administrations' response to supply-chain vulnerabilities or strategic trade disputes.
