A resolution commemorating the 95th anniversary of the enactment of the Tariff Act of 1930.

This resolution commemorates the 95th anniversary of the 1930 Tariff Act (Smoot-Hawley Act), noting its historical role in raising U.S. import tariffs. It observes that the Act contributed to global trade wars, a sharp decline in U.S. exports (down 68% from 1929-1933), and worsened the Great Depression. The Senate resolution states it reflects on the consequences of protectionist policies and affirms support for rules-based trade that lowers costs for U.S. businesses and consumers. It is a non-binding historical observation with no new policy or funding.
