No Tariffs on Groceries Act
This bill prohibits the President from imposing new tariffs on food items without specific congressional approval. It requires the President to submit a formal request to Congress for any proposed food tariffs, which must then be approved by a separate law. The bill covers a broad range of food-related products, including groceries, animal feed, seeds, fertilizers, and agricultural chemicals. Existing tariff-rate quotas for food are exempt from this restriction.
