Stop Executive Overreach on Trade Agreements
HR 7983 amends the tax code to define "free trade agreement" for clean vehicle credits as an international trade deal approved by Congress. This means the clean vehicle tax credit will only apply to vehicles manufactured in countries with trade agreements that Congress has formally approved, not just executive-negotiated deals. The change affects consumers and vehicle manufacturers seeking the credit, as eligibility now depends on congressional approval of the trade agreement. The new definition applies to vehicles placed in service after the bill's enactment date.
