Show full summary
- Families and consumers could see tariff-driven price changes delayed while the CBO completes and posts its economic review.
- Importers and exporters would face added timing uncertainty because no tariff modification may take effect until that CBO review is published.
- Trade decisionmakers would need a published CBO analysis for any tariff change measured against the rate in effect the day before enactment, creating a mandatory procedural step.

Tariff changes delayed until budget review
If enacted, this bill would make any change to import tariffs wait for an economic review by the Congressional Budget Office. A tariff change would not take effect until the Office posts the review on its public website. The rule would start on the date of enactment and uses the tariff rate from the day before as the baseline. This could delay both tariff hikes and tariff cuts, which may affect prices for imported goods. The bill does not set a deadline or add new funding for these reviews.
