A bill to amend chapter 62 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States to modify the requirements for a garment to be considered water resistant.
This bill amends the U.S. tariff classification system for garments. It removes a specific requirement (the second sentence of Additional U.S. Note 2 to Chapter 62) regarding what qualifies as "water resistant" for customs purposes. The bill directly affects importers and manufacturers of clothing who classify garments under this tariff category. The provided context does not specify the original requirement or the exact change being made, so the concrete policy change cannot be described.
