Protecting American Autoworkers from China Act of 2024

This bill would impose a 100% tariff on automobiles imported from China under the U.S. Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) heading 8703. It directly affects Chinese automakers exporting vehicles to the U.S. and U.S. importers of Chinese-made cars. The key provision replaces any existing duty rate for these vehicles with a flat 100% tax, significantly increasing import costs. The bill also requires the U.S. Trade Representative to adjust international trade agreements to formally accommodate this tariff increase.
