US-Kazakhstan Trade Modernization Act

HR 1024, the US-Kazakhstan Trade Modernization Act, terminates the application of Title IV of the Trade Act of 1974 to Kazakhstan. This means the U.S. will no longer apply special trade restrictions tied to Kazakhstan's emigration policies, as Kazakhstan has been found compliant since 1997. The bill allows the President to determine that Title IV no longer applies and extend normal trade relations (NTR) treatment to Kazakhstan's products. As a result, Kazakhstan's exports to the U.S. will be subject to standard U.S. trade rules rather than the specific Title IV provisions.
