Customs Bill Passes House and Heads for Senate
Written by Sandy Williams
The House passed the long-awaited customs bill by a 256-158 margin on Friday. The conference report of the Trade Facilitation and Trade Enforcement Act (H.R.644) includes the ENFORCE act that provides new measures sought after by the steel industry to address evasion of antidumping and countervailing duties.
The bill will head to the Senate for final approval next week and then on to the White House for President Obama’s signature.
