Search Primer

Term list: Separate terms with spaces, not commas or semicolons.

Multi-word term: Place inside quotes to ensure an exact match (e.g. "China import").

Acronyms: Use all capital letters to ensure the search is not looking for that letter sequence instead.

Required term: If a term must be included in any resulting articles, prefix it with a plus sign (e.g., +CBP).

Excluded term: If a term should be excluded from any articles being found, prefix it with a minus sign (e.g., -ruling).

Singular form: Always use the singular form when doing multi-word terms (e.g. "russian export control" instead of "russian export controls").

Shortest word form: When you have different word forms in a quoted (multi-word) term, you want to only include the shortest version if it is the last part of the expression (e.g., "entity list" instead of "entity listing" or "entity listed").

Toomey Hopeful for Section 301 Exclusion Language
May 4, 2022 by Mara Lee|Congress

Hours before the Senate was due to consider his non-binding instruction to negotiators on the China package to retain language directing the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative to reopen a Section 301 exclusion process, Sen. Pat Toomey, R-Pa., warned that if USTR didn't open such a process if the language becomes law, he would see that as a misuse of power.

USTR Notice Seeks ‘Continuation’ Request on List 1 China Tariffs
May 4, 2022 |Trade

The Office of the U.S. Trade Representative is soliciting requests for “continuation” of the List 1 Section 301 tariffs on Chinese imports, or the duties will face “possible termination” on July 6, their four-year anniversary, as required under the 1974 Trade Act, said the agency Tuesday. “If one or more requests for continuation are submitted, USTR will publish an additional notice after July 6 announcing the continuation of the tariff action and will proceed with a review of the tariffs,” it said. “The review will include an opportunity for all interested persons to provide comments.” Under the statute, a petitioner must file a continuation request in the 60 days before the tariffs are due to expire. For List 1, that 60-day window opens Saturday. Observers speculate it’s a virtual certainty USTR will receive at least one request for continuation and the resulting review will give the public an opportunity to learn more about the direction of the Biden administration’s tariff policies toward China (see 2203120001). USTR Katherine Tai conceded during a House Ways and Means Committee hearing in March that four rounds of tariffs have “not incentivized China to change” its unfair trade practices (see 2203300051). Customs and Border Protection reported collecting $136.47 billion in Section 301 tariffs on China through April 27.
