Summary

This bill requires the Secretary of Commerce to reimpose duties on steel imported from Mexico for at least one year, and allows the President to impose additional quotas or tariff rate quotas to return Mexican steel imports to historic trade volumes.

Sec. 2, Reimposition of duties and establishment of quotas or tariff rate quotas for steel imported from Mexico: Congress finds Mexico in material breach of commitments under the May 17, 2019 Joint Statement on Section 232 duties, causing damage to the U.S. steel industry. The Secretary of Commerce must impose duties on Mexican steel equivalent to those in place on May 16, 2019, for at least one year. These duties cannot be decreased or lifted unless the Secretary and the U.S. Trade Representative certify to Congress that Mexico has adopted compliant policies and will maintain them. The President may also impose supplementary quotas or tariff rate quotas to ensure Mexican steel imports return to historic volumes as specified in the Joint Statement.
