To require a study on the manner and extent to which the tariff rates assessed by the United States on imports are regressive or demonstrate a gender bias, and for other purposes.

IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES

April 10, 2024

Mrs. Fletcher (for herself, Ms. Pettersen, Mr. Quigley, Mr. Beyer, Ms. Kuster, and Mr. Kilmer) introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee on Ways and Means

A BILL

To require a study on the manner and extent to which the tariff rates assessed by the United States on imports are regressive or demonstrate a gender bias, and for other purposes.

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,

SECTION 1. Short title.

This Act may be cited as the “Pink Tariffs Study Act”.

SEC. 2. Study required.

Not later than 1 year after the date of enactment of this Act, the Secretary of the Treasury, in coordination with the Commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection and in consultation with the United States International Trade Commission and the United States Trade Representative, shall submit to Congress the results of a study of the manner and extent to which the rates of tariffs and the revenues collected from tariffs assessed by the United States on articles imported into the customs territory of the United States—

(1) are regressive with respect to the degree to which the burden of such tariffs fall on consumers (such as tariffs that are higher on mass-market consumer goods as compared to analogous luxury goods), including an analysis of the manner and extent to which importation of the applicable goods is foregone to avoid the burden of the tariff;

(2) demonstrate a bias with respect to the gender of consumer most likely to import such article (such as tariffs that are higher on clothing classifiable as women’s clothing as compared to men’s clothing);

(3) a disaggregation of the effects described in paragraphs (1) and (2) with respect to consumers based on gender and household type (single-parent families, double-parent families, other) and income level; and

(4) such other matters relating to the manner and extent to which the burden of tariffs assessed by the United States on imports falls unequally among certain categories of consumers or households in the United States as the Secretary may determine relevant.
